The New England Patriots re-signed linebacker Dane Fletcher to a one-year deal and he was at the start of the team’s offseason workouts Tuesday, according to multiple reports.

Fletcher signed with the Patriots as an undrafted rookie in 2010 and was with the team through the 2013 season before signing with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers last year. Fletcher, known for his strong special teams play, started four games on defense in 2014 and has 10 career starts at linebacker.
