Stroud has played for the Jacksonville Jaguars (01-07), Buffalo Bills (08-10) and the New England Patriots (2011). Lars Hanson: What have you been doing since you were released in July by New England? Marcus Stroud: Nothing much besides rehabbing my shoulder. I had to get another surgery done after I was released to take out a staff infection in my shoulder and since then just working and rehabbing to try and get healthy.

New England Patriots receiver Wes Welker is probably the shortest dude in the NFL. He’s listed as 5’9″, but he’s probably a little shorter than that. So what does he do when he throws a party?

The clock is ticking for Patriots OL Marcus Cannon…

Via The Rap Sheet  |  November 11, 2011
More than two weeks ago, the Patriots had cancer survivor and offensive lineman Marcus Cannon practice, which was pretty cool after he began the year on the reserve/Non-Football Injury List. It was a touching situation. Yet Cannon is allowed to practice for just three weeks before the team has to decide whether to activate him or not. If it doesn’t, Cannon will have three weeks...

Via NESN.com  |  November 10, 2011
FOXBORO, Mass. -- Running back Stevan Ridley hasn't gotten a consistent amount of reps during his rookie season with the Patriots, which isn't much of a surprise to anyone who has followed the team's recent trend at that position. Bill Belichick typically rides the hot hand, and there's usually no telling who gets the first opportunities to show what they've got...

Via Bucs Beat  |  November 10, 2011

Cromartie knows the key to stopping Wes Welker

Via Pro Football Talk  |  November 10, 2011
Wes Welker’s insane receiving pace slowed down for a few games after he faced the Jets last time around. For two games, Welker caught only 12 passes 84 yards and a score. That’s not bad, but it’s not the record-breaking numbers we saw early in the season. Welker bounced back for a huge day against…
