The Patriots signed tight end Austin Seferian-Jenkins to a one-year deal, ESPN reported Wednesday.
“Thank you @patriots I’m ready to go to work!’’ Seferian-Jenkins posted on Instagram on Wednesday.
New England gave its newest tight end a $50,000 signing bonus on the deal, which includes an additional $40,000 in incentives,
according to the NFL Network.
A 2014 second-round pick by Tampa Bay, he is entering his sixth NFL season and brings much-needed experience to New England’s tight end corps, which also includes Matt LaCosse, Stephen Anderson, Jacob Hollister, and Ryan Izzo.
