The New England Patriots are always trying to keep their team on the highest possible level, while having sufficient depth at every position. That's the reason why the Patriots will never stop building every facet of the team, be it the active 53-man roster or the 10-man practice squad.

Therefore, it does not come as a surprise to see the team make two practice squad transactions yesterday. Via patriots.com, New England has re-signed wide recevier DeAndre Carter and have released offensive lineman Torrian Wilson.
