Ten-year veteran tight end Alge Crumpler ended his free agency on Wednesday by signing a contract with the New England Patriots, the third team he has played with since putting on the Atlanta Falcons jersey in 2001 as a second-round draft pick.
Crumpler spent the last two seasons with the Tennessee Titans and finished the last season with 27 receptions for 222 yards and one touchdown. During the entire past nine seasons, he has started 122 of 139 regular-season games with 367 catches for 4,691 yards and 37 touchdowns and was selected to Pro Bowl for four times.
The Patriots expect that the 32-year-old veteran could fill a glaring hole in their offense, making him the first tight end on their current roster who has appeared in an NFL game since Ben Watson joined the Cleveland Browns on a free-agent contract and Chris Baker was released and signed with the Seattle Seahawks.
