Ryan Wendell glad to be back with the New England Patriots

New England Patriots center Ryan Wendell reveals that he is pleased to be back with the club after being allowed to hit the free-agent market.

New England Patriots center Ryan Wendell has admitted that he was delighted to get the call to return to the club during free agency.

The 28-year-old was allowed to hit the free-agent market by the Patriots, but he did not have to wait too long for the offer to return to Gillette Stadium as he penned a two-year deal late last month.

He told 98.5 The Sports Hub: "It was definitely something different, but it was such a blessing. Just to have the career that I've been able to have here at the Patriots, to even have the opportunity to become a free agent, and to market my skills out there and things like that, it was a blessing to have that opportunity.

"And then to be able to sign back with the Patriots, to be where I want to be, to stay here, to stay home, it was great. I'm very thankful for that."

Wendell arrived in the league as an undrafted free agent in 2008.
