So obviously Sunday night we had two players (Martellus Bennett & Brian Hoyer) return to the Patriots after stints with at least one other team. Anytime there is a familiar face available, there seems to be some speculation that the Pats should be interested. It got me thinking, how often during the BB era have we seen players leave and come back?
So I'm looking for your help to make this list, but players need to meet the following criteria...
1.) The player must have been on an active roster for at least one other team between stints on the Patriots. (This discounts fringe roster players like Russ Ventrone who were cut and resigned weekly).
2.) The player must have been on an active roster on the Pats during the BB era during their first and second stints with the Pats. (This excludes guys who have 'come back' but not made the team such as Brandon Spikes, Jabar Gaffney, and I think Brian Waters).
Alright, so with that criteria here's the list I have thus far...........
Martellus Bennett
Brian Hoyer
Deion Branch
LeGarrette Blount
Patrick Chung
Donte Stallworth
Tully Banta Cain
Edit (based on forum feedback):
Andre Carter
Ken Walter
2019 Edit (officially joining the list this season):
Jamie Collins
Brandon Bolden
Ben Watson
Jordan Richards (good call Hammer of Thor)
I'm sure I'm missing plenty so hopefully you guys can help me out.
