New England Patriots har endnu engang sikret sig tjenesterne fra fullback Jack Westover. Spilleren underskrev onsdag en kontrakt med holdet, der indebærer en eksklusiv rettighed som free agent. Denne type kontrakt forhindrer Westover i at indlede forhandlinger med andre NFL-hold, hvilket gør det naturligt at formalisere genforeningen nu, hvor offseason-programmet er begyndt.
Westover begyndte sin NFL-karriere som tight end, men blev omskolet til fullback sidste år. Han deltog i samtlige 17 kampe i den seneste sæson, hvor han både scorede et catch i grundspillet og et i slutspillet. Med Reggie Gilliam, som Patriots skrev kontrakt med som free agent forrige måned, vil der nu være konkurrence om spilletid i angrebet denne sæson.
Genansættelsen af Westover understreger holdets fokus på at styrke sin trup med erfarne spillere, inden den kommende sæson tager fat.
