The New England Patriots announced Sunday they have re-signed rookie linebacker James Morris.
Morris was originally signed by the Patriots in mid-May as an undrafted free agent out of Iowa but released a few days later.
Morris, 22, was just the sixth player in Iowa history to record 400 career tackles after finishing with 400 tackles, 10.5 sacks and six interceptions as a three-year starter.
