Houston Texans defensive tackle Vince Wilfork has moved on after 11 seasons with the Patriots, but he returned to New England over the weekend to tie up one important loose end. On Sunday, Wilfork attended a party at owner Robert Kraft's house where members of the 2014 Patriots received their Super Bowl rings.

While another former Patriot, Darrelle Revis, was unable to attend because of a "prior commitment," Wilfork was there and seemed happy to mingle with his former coaches and teammates as he picked up his new hardware.

Wilfork won two Super Bowls during his time in New England. The 33-year-old signed with the Texans in March after the Patriots elected not to pick up his option for the 2015 season.

The five-time Pro Bowler will have a chance to catch up with his old friends again when the Texans host the Patriots Dec. 13.
