.
Veteran RB Kevin Faulk is back with the Patriots.
Faulk, who said he has no plans of retiring, will receive a shot to make the roster after all. After tearing his ACL last year, Faulk has rehabbed enough to take part in camp, though he’s not out here today. He’d previously noted he didn’t want to play for another team than the Pats.
We found out because his name is on the roster.
So it’s official. opcorn:opcorn:opcorn:

Have to at the very least give him a shot if he still wants to play.
Or, a WR is traded.So we now have 6 RBs on the roster? Hmmm. Either this means one of the rookies does't make it, BJGE might be traded, or one of Morris/Faulk won't make it. Things that make you go Hmmmmm.

No matter how many folks we have at RB, Faulk is money on 3rd down. I can't remember anyone as solid and dependable as him catching the ball out of the backfield, or having to make a 3rd down.
This may be his last year, but I still am going to be sad to see him go. He's like Ben Coates used to be for us.

Great to give him a chance but ultimately I believe he'll be a camp casualty. If that happens and he retires I hope he gets a job on the coaching staff so he can still play a Crumpler type role for the kids this year. Having someone like him around could be huge.
It is July 30th and training camp. I would not be surprised if we had 6 RB's last year coming into camp. Prolly more like 5 b/c now we have 2 rookie RB's
It's also good insurance in case one of the rookies gets hurt in TC or pre-season, and gets PUP'd.
