According to Aaron Wilson, the Patriots are bringing in veteran DT Akeem Spence for a visit this week.
Spence, 28, is a former sixth-round pick by the Buccaneers back in 2013. He finished his four-year, $2,644,424 rookie contract with Tampa Bay before signing a three-year, $10.5 million contract with the Lions in 2017.
The Lions traded Spence to the Dolphins in 2018 for a conditional seventh-round draft pick. Miami released Spence during the preseason and he later signed on with the Eagles in September of 2019 but was cut loose after a month.
He signed with the Jaguars in October of last year and finished out the season in Jacksonville.
