Patriots wide receiver Brandon Tate has spent most of his rookie season working out and taking notes. This week he finally got the chance to practice.
Tate was on the non-football injury list as he recovered from surgery to repair a torn anterior cruciate ligament and medial collateral ligament in his knee suffered during his senior season at North Carolina. The designation meant Tate could not practice until after the sixth game of the season. Now the Patriots have 21 days to determine whether they want to activate Tate, release him, or place him on the season-ending reserve list.
Tackle Mark LeVoir (shoulder) is in the same boat, as he was on the physically unable to perform list.
Tate has been itching for a chance, and he is joining the mix at the right time. The Patriots released veteran receiver Joey Galloway Tuesday, and receiver Julian Edelman has a forearm injury that kept him out of practice yesterday.
