According to the Boston Herald, TE Benjamin Watson underwent ankle surgery in the past couple weeks. The injury occured in the game vs Dalllas and now after the surgery there is question if he will be able to return before training camp.
“It was definitely an issue, but everyone has issues, stuff they fight through,” he said. “It was a nagging thing. Right now, it feels good.
“I’ve had some time to rest since the season ended. It was bothering me during the season from that initial injury. But that’s what the offseason is about. Rest and rehab.”
The Pats have David Thomas and Stephen Spach as other TEs on thier roster, look for them to maybe draft a young TE in the middle to late rounds also.
