Jabar Gaffney stays with New England Patriots

He was originally drafted by the Houston Texans in the second round of the 2002 NFL Draft and played four seasons with the team. In 2006 Gaffney became a free agent with the Patriots.

In his first-ever playoff game, on January 7, 2007, against the New York Jets, Gaffney had a near-career day, catching eight passes for 104 yards, his second 100-yard performance as a receiver (in 10 regular season games, Gaffney caught 11 passes for 142 yards and one touchdown). Gaffney followed that performance a week later against San Diego with another 100-yard game, in which he caught 10 passes and scored a touchdown.

On the whole in his career, he has caught 218 passes for 2,600 yards and 13 touchdowns.
