Patriots sign 43-year-old Testaverde

 

FOXBOROUGH, Mass (AP) - Vinny Testaverde, who came out of retirement last season to help out the New York Jets, was signed on Tuesday by New England.

 

The 43-year-old quarterback, the first overall pick by Tampa Bay in the 1987 draft, has played 19 NFL seasons and has 269 touchdown passes, eighth in NFL history, and is sixth with 45,252 yards passing.

He becomes the third quarterback on the Patriots roster, behind Tom Brady and second-year man Matt Cassel.

 

The Patriots will be his sixth team.

 

In addition to the Bucs, he has played for Cleveland, Baltimore, the Jets and Dallas. He retired after playing with the Cowboys in 2004, but last season rejoined the Jets, for whom he played from 1998-2003, after starter Chad Pennington and backup Jay Fiedler were injured in the same game.

 

Testaverde, who started four games for the Jets last season, became the first player in NFL history to throw at least one touchdown pass in 19 straight seasons. He completed 60 of 106 passes for 777 yards with one touchdown and six interceptions. He was subsequently replaced by Brooks Bollinger, who had started the season as the team's third stringer.

This has been said already. And why is it so funny? It's a good move. An experienced veteran to come in and help us finish off our relatively simple regular season schedule to give Brady a rest and figure out whatever the hell is going on with him.

 

This move does make you question whether or not Brady is okay though. He's looked like his evil twin brother the last couple games.

Good move or not, it does bring up the question of Tom Brady's health. That would explain some things.

I hope Vinny gets to throw a TD pass

My B. I didn't see it posted anywhere.

 

I love Vinny. I can't believe he's out of retirement.
