FOXBOROUGH, Mass. — The New England Patriots have signed kicker Matthew Wright to the practice squad and released receiver Mathew Sexton from the practice squad. Wright is 40 for 46 in 23 games over three seasons with the Steelers, Jaguars and Chiefs. He provides the Patriots with insurance after rookie Chad Ryland, a fourth-round draft pick, missed 35-yard field goals in back-to-back games. The Patriots lost both games. Sexton had been signed to the practice squad on Wednesday.
