Patriots TE Alge Crumpler Underwent Shoulder Surgery


New England Patriots tight end Alge Crumpler underwent shoulder surgery in January, Shalise Manza Young of The Boston Globe reports.

Crumpler played through the "significant" injury for much of the 2010 season, Young adds.

Signed to a two-year, $5.2 million contract last March, Crumpler caught six passes for 52 yards and two touchdowns in 2010. A four-time Pro Bowler, the 33-year old is valued primarily for his blocking and mentoring abilities at this stage of his career.

Crumpler is set to earn $2.4 million in base salary in 2011.
