Patriots Get Presidential Cut Adams, Sign Harrison

In The Red Zone

On Friday morning just before practice the New England Patriots released CB Phillip Adams and replaced him on the 53-man roster with DT Marcus Harrison.

Adams, who was released last Saturday only to be re-signed on Thursday, once again is the odd man out on Friday.

Harrison, a 2008 3rd round draft pick of the Chicago Bears out of Arkansas, is expected to add some depth to the interior of the line.  Generally when a move happens late in the week it’s due to some injury concerns.

Those concerns for New England are with DT Kyle Love and DT Albert Haynesworth; both are battling back injuries.

Harrison has 53 tackles and 3 sacks in 33 NFL games all of them with Chicago.
