The Patriots have signed 25-year old running back Chris Taylor.  Taylor played in 3 games (0 starts) for the Texans last season and he carried the ball 14 times for 37 yards (2.6 ypc).  He has now played in 7 games (0 starts) in his two year NFL career and he has carried the ball 42 times for 160 yards (3.8 ypc) with 1 TD run.  He has also caught 3 passes for 40 yards (13.3 avg) in his career.  Taylor is a solid player but he’s injury prone and the Patriots are deep at RB so he will likely have a hard time making the team.
