Report: Patriots Bringing Back Gerard Warren

BOSTON (CBS) – The Patriots defensive line will have a familiar veteran back in the fold, according to reports.

New England is set to re-sign veteran D-lineman Gerard Warren, according to CSSNE.com.

Warren played 12 games for New England last season, finishing with 12 tackles and one sack. An 11-year veteran, Warren has spent the last two seasons with the Patriots seeing action in 28 games.
