Patriots bring back Trevor Reilly to the practice squad and release Bernard Reedy

The New England Patriots brought back pass rusher Trevor Reilly to the practice squad and released wide receiver/returnman Bernard Reedy on Wednesday.

The 6’5, 240 pound Reilly spent time on the Patriots active roster earlier this season, but was released when the team signed veteran James Harrison. Reilly should add value on the practice squad while Eric Lee recovers from an injury.

Reedy has spent time on both the active roster and the practice squad and could return as needed during the postseason. He returned 4 punts for an average of 8 yards with New England.
