Brace signs with Patriots - The Boston Globe
Patriots beef up with Brace
By Christopher L. Gasper
Globe Staff / July 18, 2009
With the long-term contract uncertainty surrounding nose tackle Vince Wilfork, the last thing the Patriots needed was a protracted negotiation with rookie nose tackle Ron Brace. While Wilfork enters the last year of his contract, Brace came to terms yesterday on a four-year deal with the Patriots.

Of the Patriots’ 12 draft picks, only Chung, third-rounder Tyrone McKenzie, and sixth-rounder Jake Ingram remain unsigned.
Nothing appears imminent with Chung. McKenzie, a linebacker, is out for the season after tearing the anterior cruciate ligament in his right knee during rookie minicamp. Wynn Silberman, the agent for Ingram, said he thought the long snapper could have a deal in the next week or so.
