Titans claimed G Mitch Petrus off waivers from the Patriots. | ||||||
This is a depth move for the Titans with the likelihood that LG Steve Hutchinson is out for the season. Petrus started three regular season games for the Giants last season, but was used sparingly this year in New England, playing just 20 snaps. | ||||||

Patriots OL Mitch Petrus was added to the Week 13 injury report and is listed as questionable with an illness. | ||||||
New England has a bit of a bug making its way through the locker room. Fellow OL Markus Zusevics is also questionable with an illness. It shouldn't me much of an issue, as long as it doesn't spread any further. | ||||||

Patriots signed OG Mitch Petrus. | ||||||
A 2010 fifth-round pick by the Giants, Metrus gained fame for bench-pressing 225 pounds a whopping 45 times at the Combine. He'll add depth on the interior in New England. | ||||||

Giants re-signed OG Mitch Petrus. | ||||||
Petrus was initially waived when the Giants claimed D.J. Jones off waivers from the Eagles. Jones failed his physical, so the G-Men turned back to Petrus. Petrus, 25, made three starts last season and struggled mightily. The Giants should hope that they don't have to turn back to him to start games in 2012. | ||||||

| Wed Jun 23 2010 | 12:54 | Giants do deal with Petrus | ||||
Giants agreed to terms with fifth-round OG Mitch Petrus on a four-year contract. | ||||||
The G-Men have just three rookies left to sign: Jason Pierre-Paul, Linval Joseph, and Matt Dodge. Petrus, an athletic former fullback at Arkansas, could fall in line as New York's left guard of the future. Assuming Williams Beatty wins the left tackle job, Petrus would back up David Diehl inside adjacent him. | ||||||

| Sat Apr 24 2010 | 12:47 | Giants draft G Petrus | ||||
Giants selected Arkansas OG Mitch Petrus with the No. 147 overall pick in the 2010 NFL Draft. | ||||||
Petrus gained fame by bench pressing 225 pounds a whopping 45 times at the Combine, and is an underrated athlete as a former starting fullback for the Razorbacks. He's not a special talent and is limited to guard, but fits the Giants as a reserve type with power-blocking potential at a stout 6'3/310. | ||||||
