Patriots pick up out of shape Montee Ball

Patriots practice squad RB Montee Ball is reportedly heavier than 230 pounds. When he worked out for the Packers two weeks ago, Ball was allegedly in the 240s. Ball came out of Wisconsin at 214, so he's considerably overweight. (Ed Werder on Twitter)
Fantasy Impact:
Ball has a golden opportunity with a playoff team with Super Bowl potential. The Patriots currently only have two running backs on the roster and need help desperately. It would be hard to imagine no matter how desperate the team is that the Patriots coaching staff would put up with someone out of shape. It will be hard for Ball to make the roster.
