The New England Patriots have re-signed Nick Folk on Monday after hosting him for a see this weekend.
Folk, 35, ends up being the second kicker on the Patriots lineup after New England picked Marshalls Justin Rohrwasser in the 5th round of the draft.
Folk began seven games for the Patriots last season as a replacement for Stephen Gostkowski, who had a hip injury that landed him on hurt reserve. Folk was 16-of-19 on field objectives and 13-of-13 on additional points.

Rohrwasser has hardly begun practices gone to by press reporters. Rohrwasser was 3-of-5 on basket at the end of a practice Monday but has primarily rode the exercise bike because, which might be an indicator he is managing a concealed injury.
Asked on Friday about Rohrwassers enhancement and assimilation to the NFL, coach Bill Belichick was unclear, stating: “Everybodys making development.”
The Patriots, who had two open roster spots going into Monday, also signed protective lineman Michael Barnett, a novice free agent out of Georgia.
