FOXBOROUGH, Mass. (AP) — A person with knowledge of the negotiations says wide receiver Donte Stallworth has agreed to a one-year contract to return to the New England Patriots.
The person spoke to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity on Monday because he was not authorized to speak on the matter.
Stallworth spent one season with the Patriots in 2007 when they went 18-0 before losing the Super Bowl to the New York Giants. He had 46 catches during the regular season. He had 17 receptions with Cleveland in 2008, two with Baltimore in 2010 and 22 with Washington last year.
He was suspended for the 2009 season by NFL commissioner Roger Goodell for violating the league’s personal-conduct policy for a DUI vehicular manslaughter charge.
