The New England Patriots have added two layers to the cornerback depth chart.
Veteran Breon Borders and rookie Azizi Hearn agreed to terms with the organization’s practice squad on Thursday, as shared by Exclusive Sports Group and Doug Kyed of the Boston Herald.
Borders, 28, has appeared in 32 games since entering the NFL as an undrafted free agent out of Duke in 2017. His career includes six starts, seven pass deflections, one interception, one fumble recovery and 42 tackles. He stands with 526 snaps on defense and 329 snaps on special teams over that span.
