Decker visits Pats amid WR injuries, source says

FOXBOROUGH, Mass. -- Managing a run of injuries at wide receiver early in training camp, the New England Patriots hosted free agent Eric Decker on a workout Monday, a source told ESPN NFL Insider Field Yates.

It is commonplace for the Patriots to work out players to keep their emergency lists updated, and Decker wasn't the only receiver the Patriots had in town. They also took a closer look at second-year player Devin Fuller, who was most recently with the Atlanta Falcons.

But while Fuller would be a longshot for a roster spot, the 31-year-old Decker would fall into a different category given his experience and production.
