5 free agents the Patriots could target with NFL facilities reopening

Looking at 5 possible free agents the Patriots could sign as they approach the July 28 start date of training camp for the 2020 season.

RB Devonta Freeman

Freeman currently sits as the top running back in free agency. With Sony Michel recovering from foot surgery over the offseason, perhaps it wouldn’t be out of the realm of possibility for the Patriots to bring in some more depth this summer at the running back position. Patriots fans are of course no stranger to Freeman as he was the Falcons primary running back in Super Bowl LI, registering 11 carries for 75 yards on the ground and a touchdown, as well as 2 receptions for 46 yards in the air. The Falcons opted not to re-sign Freeman at the end of last season, and instead signed former Rams running back Todd Gurley. Freeman is 28 years old.
