Until this week he has been invisible in Patriots training camp, his return will give a boost to their offense.Scott Chandler was supposed to get the Patriots offense back back to their two tight end set that was very successful when Rob Gronkowski and Aaron Hernandez were tearing apart opposing defenses. An injury in week one of training camp that was reportedly a leg injury has kept him out of action until this week.

Chandler played 5 seasons with the Buffalo Bills where he caught 182 passes for 2,120 yards and 17 touchdowns.
