Patriots signed P Chris Hanson and released P Danny Baugher.
The Pats continue to play musical chairs with punters. Hanson was in training camp with the Saints but lost out to incumbent Steve Weatherford. It appears New England will not have a rookie punting this year after all.

Patriots re-signed P Chris Hanson.
Hanson finished 2008 just 18th in net average, but has the Foxboro elements to deal with and put an outstanding 44% of his punts inside opponents’ 20-yard line. Tom Malone probably won’t give Hanson much of a run in camp.
