I was stunned to see the Patriots re-signed veteran OT Marcus Cannon this week to the practice squad. He's had a long and winding journey with the Patriots that includes 2nd team All Pro recognition, Super Bowls, and most recently a Covid-19 opt-out season in 2020. As a cancer survivor and a father of three young children, his decision made sense at the height of the pandemic.
It's unclear how much tread he has on the tires, but having a seasoned veteran on the team with his pedigree has to be a literal and figurative big addition to the Offensive Line room. I hope he sticks for the season and helps out however he can. I imagine Trent Brown is pleased to have his teammate back in the fold. They played together on the 2018 Super Bowl winning team that beat the Rams.
I love this move at a moment in time when some veteran stability is needed to work through the many changes we're seeing on offense.
Welcome back, big guy!
