New England Patriots tight end Alge Crumpler underwent shoulder surgery in January, according to the *Boston Globe*.
Crumpler, 33, had the procedure done after he suffered a "significant" injury to the joint during the season and is now working to rehabilitate the shoulder.
Mainly used as a blocking tight end, Crumpler finished with six receptions for 52 yards and two touchdowns last season.
The 10-year veteran has one year left on his current contract and it is unclear when he will be able to workout again at full strength.
