Harrison back on the field

FOXBORO -- He's baaackk . . .

Rodney Harrison, who hasn't played since last September because of a severe knee injury suffered in the third game of the season, at Pittsburgh, was removed from the Patriots' PUP list today (Physically Unable to Perform, for those unaware with NFL jargon) and is back on the practice field this afternoon.

Harrison was one of five players taken off the PUP list today. The others were defensive linemen Richard Seymour and Johnathan Sullivan, defensive back Randall Gay and center Dan Koppen.

The Pats also announced today that veteran safety Mel Mitchell (arm) and rookie wide receiver Matt Shelton (knee/groin) have been placed on the reserve/injured list and as a result will miss the remainder of the 2006 season.

More later . . .
