Patriots add depth to DE position with practice squad signing

The Patriots added some defensive line depth on Wednesday

The New England Patriots signed defensive end William Bradley-King to the practice squad, per MassLive’s Mark Daniels.

Bradley-King was originally drafted in the seventh round of the 2021 NFL draft. He played for the Washington Football Team/Commanders from 2021-2023. He was released from the Commanders’ practice squad on October 14.

Bradley-King has seven tackles and 0.5 sacks in his career.

New England could use depth at the defensive end position. The defensive side of the football has been hit hard by the injury bug throughout the season as a whole. Along the defensive front, Matthew Judon is currently on injured reserve, while Josh Uche and Keion White are dealing with injuries as well.

New England will need to right the ship on both sides of the football if they want to salvage the season. They currently sit at the bottom of the AFC East with a 1-5 record and defense being their best hope.
