The New England Patriots had a familiar face at practice with offensive tackle Marcus Cannon rejoining his former longtime team for a visit on Thursday.
It didn’t take long for the Patriots to make the reunion official with the team signing the 34-year-old lineman to the practice squad after his workout.
Cannon spent nine seasons with the Patriots before joining the Houston Texans in 2021. He started only four games for the Texans before going on injured reserve for the rest of the year and ultimately being released in the offseason.
There have been questions along the offensive front for the Patriots throughout training camp and the preseason with the unit struggling to adjust to the new offensive scheme.
