The New England Patriots are adding to their offensive tackle depth. Free agent Kellen Diesch, who was in town for a workout on Thursday, is expected to sign a contract with the club.
ESPN’s Mike Reiss was first to report the move.
Diesch, 26, split his six-year college career between Texas A&M and Arizona State. A 15-game starter for the Sun Devils, he went unselected in the 2022 NFL Draft and joined the Miami Dolphins as a rookie free agent. However, he lasted only four months before his release.
The 6-foot-7, 300-pound lineman then took his talents to the Chicago Bears’ practice squad.
