02/17/2007 - Foxboro, MA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The New England Patriots put the franchise tag on cornerback Asante Samuel, which should keep the 26-year-old standout with the organization for at least one more year.

A fourth-round pick in the 2003 NFL Draft, the Central Florida product has appeared in 59 regular season and 11 postseason contests for the Patriots.

Samuel had a career year in 2006, amassing 10 interceptions, 14 passes defensed and 59 tackles.

Samuel would have become an unrestricted free agent if the Patriots hadn't designated him their franchise player.
