The ex-Ram whose name many of us had trouble pronouncing correctly has moved from the team that continually cheats to win bends the rules until they almost break, to a team presently falling apart. Depending on how one looks at it, it's either a win-win or a lose-lose proposition for him.

Patriots trade Michael Hoomanawanui to Saints

For the second time this week, the Patriots have made a trade.
This time it’s New England sending tight end Michael Hoomanawanui to the Saints, Ben Volin of the Boston Globe reports.
The 27-year-old Hoomanawanui was a fifth-round draft pick of the Rams out of Illinois in 2010 and has been with the Patriots since 2012. He’s in the final year of his current contract and has a base salary of $800,000, which means the Saints will pay him $658,000 for the remainder of the season.
Hoomanawanui is a solid blocker and occasional receiver who has largely been phased out of the Patriots’ offense and barely played this year. In New Orleans he’ll join a tight end group that includes Ben Watson and Josh Hill.
