Samuel signs tender

Hey all --

It's been confirmed that Asante Samuel has signed his one-year franchise tender, though it is not believed that the Patriots agreed not to franchise the cornerback in 2008, which was the reason Samuel didn't sign the deal yesterday when he arrived at Gillette Stadium.

Samuel's representatives made one last effort to get the team not to franchise Samuel again -- something the Bears agreed to with linebacker Lance Briggs, as long as Briggs plays in more than 75 percent of Chicago's defensive snaps this year -- but it seemed unlikely from the beginning that New England would surrender one of the weapons it has at its disposal.

Bill Belichick is set to have his press conference at 10:45 a.m. and then the open locker room session is after that.
