Who?

The former Minnesota Golden Gopher and younger brother of Patriots running back Shane Vereen could not have handpicked a better situation for his entrance into the NFL. After whispers of a potential starting job in Chicago for the 4th-rounder, the crafty 6’0″, 200-pound safety is slotted behind 5th-year player and former Dallas Cowboy Danny McCray.

Watch for Vereen to supplant McCray by Week 3 and become an instant impact player on an aging defense in dire need of reliable playmakers.
