The Patriots announced today that they signed second-year nose tackle Steve Fifita and waived rookie offensive tackle Josh Coffman and rookie defensive lineman Carlos Feliciano.

A bit from the press release:

Fifita, 25, played in 13 games with one start for the Miami Dolphins in his first NFL season in 2007. The 6-foot, 312-pound nose tackle was originally signed by the Dolphins as a rookie free agent out of the University of Utah on May 5, 2006. He was waived by Miami on Aug. 29, 2006 and spent the 2006 season out of football. Fifita re-signed with the Dolphins on Jan. 18, 2007 and was allocated to NFL Europa, where he played in 10 games with four starts for the Frankfurt Galaxy in the Spring of 2007. In his first NFL season in 2007, he recorded 11 tackles (seven solo) for Miami. He was waived by the Dolphins on April 29, 2008.

Coffman, 23, and Feliciano, 22, were signed by the Patriots as rookie free agents on May 2.
