New England re-signs WR Jabbar Gaffney

FOXBORO, Mass., March 5 (UPI) -- The New England Patriots Wednesday have re-signed wide receiver Jabbar Gaffney.

His re-signing comes two days after fellow wideout Randy Moss decided to re-sign Monday.

"Jabar is a good fit for our offense," Patriots Coach Bill Belichick said in a statement. "He has been a versatile and dependable player who steps up in whatever role is asked of him."

Gaffney has been with the Patriots the past two seasons after signing as a free agent in October 2006.

In the 2000 NFL draft, he was a first-round pick by the Houston Texans, and last season he scored a career-best five touchdowns with 35 catches for 449 yards.

In 91 career games, Gaffney has scored 13 times with 218 receptions for 2,600 yards.
