Kranchick out, Jones in

In a move that was about as surprising as Britney Spears and Kevin Federline's divorce, the Patriots today cut tight end Matt Kranchick. In his place, they signed tight end Brian Jones.

Despite being huge, Kranchick didn't have much else going for him, except that he was the only tight end on the roster who hadn't missed a training camp practice. When Marcellus Rivers, who had been on the team for all of two days, got onto the field before Kranchick on Friday night, it was clear the end was near.

Jones is a 25, 6-foot-3, 258 pounds, who spent his first three seasons with Jacksonville. The second Arkansas-Pine Bluff product New England has brought in over the last week (corner Dante Wesley), played in 16 games as a rookie in 2004, 13 games in 2005, and spent last year on injured reserve. He has nine receptions for 146 yards and a score in his career.
