New England Patriots free agency: LB Ramon Humber agrees to one-year deal (report)

The New England Patriots have made their first move in 2016 free agency.

And it's a very Patriots-esque signing.

The Pats agreed on a one-year deal with ex-Saints linebacker Ramon Humber, according to ESPN's Mike Reiss.

Humber is considered to be primarily a special teamer; in 2015, he played 50 percent of New Orleans' special teams snaps and just 25 percent of their defensive snaps.

Humber had been with the Saints since 2010. He signed a two-year contract a year ago, but was cut in early February.

The 5-foot-11, 232-pound Humber was undrafted out of North Dakota State in 2009.
