The Patriots have stayed busy this offseason.
After trading Brandin Cooks to the Los Angeles Rams Tuesday, New England reportedly signed two new players less than 24 hours later.
Troy Niklas
According to NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport, the Patriots and tight end Troy Niklas have agreed to a one-year deal. Niklas most recently played for the Arizona Cardinals, where he has spent all four seasons of his professional career. The California native played college football at Notre Dame and was the 52nd overall pick in the 2014 draft.
Niklas recorded 11 receptions for 132 yards and a touchdown last year.
