The Patriots have claimed cornerback Antwaun Molden on waivers from the Houston Texans according to ESPNBoston.com's Mike Reiss.Molden was drafted with the 16th pick of the third round in the 2008 NFL Draft, and played 32 games with the Texans. He has 28 career tackles (23 solo) in his career.
The cornerback position looks to be a position of need for the Patriots, as Jonathan Wilhite was released, Darius Butler hasn't performed well, Ras-I Dowling is a rookie coming off a leg injury, and Leigh Bodden missed all of last season with a torn rotator cuff.
