Blount is expected to sign a two-year deal for the minimum that includes incentives.
Blount played for the Patriots in 2013 after they acquired him via a trade from the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
Blount will likely receive a little more work in New England than he was getting in Pittsburgh. The news of him signing back with the Patriots is not a shock at all.
