Today’s only practice squad transactions:
Los Angeles Chargers
- Signed: OL Brent Laing
New England Patriots
- Signed: CB William Hooper, RB Ke’Shawn Vaughn
Hooper, an undrafted rookie out of Northwestern State, originally signed with the Packers after a rookie minicamp invitation. When he failed to make the initial 53-man roster in Green Bay, the Patriots swooped in, signing the young defensive back in mid-September. Two weeks later, Hooper was a free agent again, not signing with another team until late-November when he joined the Cardinals’ practice squad. After Arizona released him about a week ago, Hooper will rejoin the Patriots as a member of the practice squad, once again.
