Mike Flynn not in initial mix

Posted by Mike Reiss, Globe Staff August 30, 2008 02:50 PM

The Patriots will finalize their 53-man roster later today, and veteran offensive lineman Mike Flynn is not in the mix.

"I talked with Scott Pioli and the short time that Mike was there, it went well," said Flynn's agent, Ralph Cindrich. "Mike really liked it a lot. It's been an excellent experience. When the dust is lifted we'll see where things are."

Flynn is the type of player who could always return to the Patriots. One aspect to keep in mind is that veterans on the opening-day roster are fully guaranteed their salary.

So much for this bold statement, on this blog, regarding Flynn (see second item) having presumably locked up a roster spot.
