The Facts: According to Herald staffer Jeff Howe, Blount re-signed with the Patriots this morning. He's back.

Diehards Line: As the Sports Xchange suggests, Blount wasn't as productive as his 4.3-yard average would indicate before he landed on IR with a hip injury late. He will have to fight to keep a role with the team even. The good news? Blount is said to be at 100 percent and will be ready for the start of OTAs.
