U.S. Marine 1st Lieutenant Paul Quessenberry has landed a job with the New England Patriots, heralding a return to his football career after five years serving his country. The announcement was made just days after Quessenberry impressed coaches at a tryout, proving he hasn’t lost his touch.
Quessenberry, 28, hadn’t played a football game since leaving the NFL, according to NESN. He signed papers for his first professional football commitment in five years on Aug. 23, laying claim to jersey number 48.
