After a small flurry of moves before the season officially starts, New England is now ready to start the season.
The Patriots added a blocker to their roster for tonight’s game against the Miami Dolphins, promoting Thomas Welch from the practice squad. Welch is a swing tackle that was originally drafted by the Patriots in 2010.
The Patriots have announced the signing of former Vanderbilt offensive tackle Thomas Welch. Terms of the contract were not immediately disclosed.
The Patriots have selected OT Thomas Welch with the 208th pick in the 2010 NFL Draft. Welch played his college ball at Vanderbilt. The Patriots gave up their remaining two non-compensatory 7th round picks to move up with Washington.
Welch joins Devin McCourty, Rob Gronkowski, Jermaine Cunningham, Brandon Spikes, Taylor Price, Aaron Hernandez and Zoltan Mesko as the newest Patriots.
