Holt in jeopardy of not making Pats' roster

[Mooche]

ESPN Boston's Mike Reiss is the latest scribe to predict that Torry Holt will not make the Patriots' roster this season.
The Pats seem likely to keep six or seven receivers, but special teamers Sam Aiken and Matthew Slater are ticketed for those final two spots. Holt was already behind the eight-ball before missing this week's practices with an undisclosed injury. Wes Welker's quicker than anticipated return leaves Holt without an offensive role.

Not really surprised with this. Holt showed with Jacksonville to me he didn't have much left at all in the tank. He was amazing in his day and I think his name is being called to hang the cleats up.

I agree, he may be like a third down possession guy but that's about it.

Patriots placed WR Torry Holt on injured reserve with a knee injury, ending his season.
He'll need surgery on the knee, but this was essentially a nice way of the Pats telling Holt he wouldn't make the team. Now 34, Holt's career may be over. He's been unable to separate from defensive backs since the 2007 season, and was outplayed by youngsters Taylor Price and Brandon Tate in Patriots camp. It's quite possible that Holt's inability to play deep into his 30s will cost him a shot at the Hall of Fame. He made seven Pro Bowls with the Rams. Aug. 15 - 2:43 pm et

Well. Holt is finished.

He had an amazing career...

He needs to just put the cleats up and go coach somewhere.
