Patriots released FB Lousaka Polite.
The writing was on the wall for the 30-year-old after New England came to terms with Tony Fiammetta earlier today, after also signing Spencer Larsen. Polite was a late season addition for New England in 2011, playing only 24 snaps.
Mar 26 - 6:04 PM
Patriots signed FB Lousaka Polite.
Donald Thomas, who had been playing fullback in some packages, will be needed at guard with Logan Mankins (MCL sprain) out for the season finale. The Pats don't use a lead-blocker on most plays, so Polite's role will be limited.

The Patriots worked out free agent FBs Lousaka Polite and Charles Scott Tuesday.
New England also worked out free agent TE Jake O'Connell. The Patriots don't typically use a roster spot on a fullback, so this is likely a case of due diligence more than anything else. It probably doesn't hurt that Polite spent the past three seasons with division rival Miami.

ESPN Boston
Dolphins FB Lousaka Polite has converted all twenty of his third-and-1 and fourth-and-1 carries between 2009 and 2010.
Polite's presence has opened up the short-yardage offense for Miami, who also has third-down threats Brandon Marshall and Davone Bess. The Dolphins still give the ball to Ronnie Brown and Ricky Williams on the opposing one-yard line, so there's no fantasy impact here.

Sidelined
Rob Gronkowski (ankle surgery) is not participating in this week's OTAs.
Gronk was on the field Thursday, but limited to rehab work on the side of practice. While his timetable should have him back to 100 percent by training camp, Gronk's ankle will be an injury to monitor the next couple of months.
