Pats move

The Patriots announced the release of tight end Matt Kranchick today. The team also announced the signing of free-agent tight end Brian Jones.

The 25-year-old Jones has played in 29 games with one start for the Jacksonville Jaguars (2004-2006). The 6-3, 258-pound Arkansas-Pine Bluff product has nine career receptions for 146 yards and a touchdown.

Jones missed the 2006 season after he was placed on injured reserve last August.

Kranchick was initially signed to the Patriots practice squad Dec. 13, 2006.
