Patriots Sign Tyler Gaffney
4 years agoThe New England Patriots are signing running back Tyler Gaffney, who most recently spent time with the San Francisco 49ers and Jacksonville Jaguars, according to a source. Gaffney had a brief stint in minor league baseball with the Pittsburgh Pirates, but he retired from baseball in March of 2019 after hitting just .194/.313/.298 with three home runs in 51 games at Double-A Altoona. Gaffney first entered the league with the Carolina Panthers as a sixth-round pick in 2014, but he tore his knee in training camp and was waived and didn't appear in a single regular season game in his four years in the league. He bounced around Injured Reserve and the practice squad for three years with the Patriots.
