Raiders sign former Patriots quarterback Brian Hoyer to two-year pact

Three weeks after his release from the New England Patriots became official, Brian Hoyer has caught on with familiar faces.

The veteran quarterback signed a two-year contract with the Las Vegas Raiders on Tuesday, as first announced by agency JL Sports.

Hoyer, 37, had been in his third stint with the organization that he initially joined as an undrafted free agent in 2009. The 6-foot-2, 216-pound Michigan State product now rejoins former Patriots quarterbacks coach and offensive coordinator Josh McDaniels, along with a Raiders staff that also includes the likes of Dave Ziegler, Mick Lombardi, Bo Hardegree, Carmen Bricillo, Jerry Schuplinski and Patrick Graham.
