Adam Schefter of NFL Network is reporting that the New England Patriots have signed running back LaMont Jordan, a day after he was released by the Oakland Raiders. Per Schefter, Jordan was also considering signing with the Saints, a team that could be in greater need of another veteran running back if Deuce McAllister’s swollen knee turns out to be serious. Jordan’s deal with the Patriots is a one-year contract. No financial terms have been reported. http://www.profootballtalk.com/category/rumor-mill/
They're looking for depth. Getting former starters that still have talent is a pretty good way to get that. Jordan's a former Jet too who can catch as well as run.
They call him "Boney Maroney" in NE because he is always banged up. I don't blame them going after Jordan.
For some reason this gets my hair standing. The last ex-Raider on the Patriots was Randy Moss, and you all know how that went. If Jordan shows flashes of his 2005 year, that's not a good thing.
Yea they want to know how to beat the $&^% out of them they do play them this year every game counts. As we all know
Yeah, they kind of signed our whole Saban roster and beat our asses with them. Damn those cheaters who call themselves Patriots. Cheating is definitely Patriotic.
ohhh i called that one thanks sirius nfl radio Unfortunately he's going to fit in well there as a 2nd option or if if maroney goes down... god i hate that team...
Yea I was there too Alen I have to go be by myself now thanks a lot I will go cry myself to sleep.:. I know what you are saying right now he is not crying he is sweating but I cry from the top of my head thanks for reminding me alen
He's an over-rated piece of garbage. Why the Patriots signed him with Maroney, Morris and Faulk, all three better than him, is beyond me. Yes Morris is coming off a knee injury and Faulk MAY be suspeded due to the drugs, but thats 4 games max and Maroney I'm sure could hold down fort for four games, along with Morris. Jordan blows. Take from a Jets fan who knows. The guy was made to look better because he never carried the ball until the 4th quarter and then when the defense was worn down and tired he'd come and put on a show. Real fans knew he was garbage, racking up 4th quarter yards thanks to Curtis Martin.
Jordan looked good taking over after Martin tore down a defense 3 yards at a time but is no starting back and a pour, old, backup. Maybe he is good a video taping. BZ
