New England Patriots
Two other free agents join Pats
With their opt outs in mind, it comes as no surprise that the Pats have many spots to fill on their roster. The Patriots added a tight end and defensive tackle before over the weekend, before adding Miller on Monday. The Patriots added tight end Jordan Leggett and defensive tackle Darius Kilgo, pending physicals and COVID-19 tests, Patriots Wire reports.
Leggett, 25, is a four-year veteran who has played for the New York Jets and the Buccaneers. He logged receptions in just one season, 2018, when he had 14 catches for 114 yards and a touchdown, while with Gang Green. The 6-foot-5 veteran entered the NFL as a fifth-round pick out of Clemson in 2017. Kilgo, 28, will begin his second stint with the Patriots after playing with New England in 2016 and 2017 when he spent time between the practice squad and the active roster. He has also spent time with the Jaguars, Texans, Titans and Lions. He has logged 16 career tackles.
At tight end, the Pats are fall off from the days of Rob Gronkowski. Matt LaCosse opted out and that left Devin Asiasi, Dalton Keene and Ryan Izzo, among others. Kilgo joins defensive tackles Lawrence Guy, Adam Butler, Byron Cowart and Bill Murray.
