Default TE Visanthe Shiancoe activated to 53-man roster

Patriots activate TE Visanthe Shianco to the 53-man roster

Will be good to finally get a look at a receiving tight end. Maybe we'll see a 5 TE formation?

The team could have waited up until tuesday to active him....The move may be signs of Hernandez not quite ready to play yet

Maybe we'll line up with 4 TEs and a RB seeing as how the bills are an undersized D.

No such thing as having too many weapons to help Brady. Agree,,,let Ahern get closer to 100% for the run down the stretch.

I know it's not any different because usually there's an inactive RB, but only 3 RBs on the roster is really unusual.

Schiancoe's been practicing for a good while now, if he's healthy and ready to play, why wait until after the Bills game to activate him? He's a quality player and can help this team, why purposefully let a talented guy off the roster, just because the deadline to activate him hasn't arrived? Of course, maybe he isn't quite 100% and they're activating him now because they know Hernandez will be limited, but I don't see the necessary correlation between the two that many people seem to be making.

We have so many TE's we could have 8 of them on the field at once. 5 of them can play OL, Dante will work his magic on them.
