The Patriots recently brought in a number of veteran running backs including Addai, Ryan Grant and Tim Hightower. Addai joins a backfield that consists of Danny Woodhead, Steven Ridley and Shane Vereen, so it will be interesting to see what role ends up playing next season. In the last few years, Addai has been used as a third-down back, the in passing game, but he comes with plenty of mileage and some injury concerns.

The significance of that is that he is the son of long-time NFL kicker Gary Anderson, who kicked for 23 years in the league with the Steelers, Eagles, 49ers, Vikings and Titans. Austin Anderson is hopeful that he can show enough to sign with the Colts to get into training camp. In that event, he would likely be used to alleviate the workload on veteran Adam Vinatieri in camp and preseason.

Freeney, though, knows his days in Indianapolis may be numbered. The Colts are adopting a new defensive system, and Freeney’s lucrative contract expires at the end of the 2012 season. This raises the possibility of a trade, even though team management has stuck with Freeney during the early stages of retooling the roster. Asked about his Colts future during a Tuesday night interview with me and co-host Bill Polian on Sirius XM NFL Radio, Freeney said: “I’m kind of old-school when it comes to that thought. I’m not LeBron trying to leave the team. I’m more like the era of Magic and (New York Giants linebacker) Lawrence Taylor, who stayed with that same team for their entire careers win, lose or draw. They were married to the city they were drafted in. You go through the tough times and great times with them, and that’s it. That’s what I’m looking forward to. You don’t know what’s going to happen. I can get traded. They may want to go in a different direction. Maybe I can’t handle the (defensive) scheme. You have all those possibilities. But, personally, I would love to stay.” Source: The Redzone (http://theredzone.org/BlogDescription.aspx?EntryID=26054)

The 52-year-old Schlichter had his playing career derailed by a gambling addiction and he’s no stranger to a cell. He has state and federal charges and with good behavior he could be on the street in a little more than nine years. While awaiting trial, Schlichter was free on house arrest but he fouled that up by twice testing positive for cocaine. He also refused to provide urine samples on several occasions. Schlichter has requested drug abuse counseling in prison. Source: National Football Post (http://www.nationalfootballpost.com/Art-Schlichter-sentenced-to-nearly-11-years-in-prison.html)
