According to Ian Rapoport, the Patriots are bringing in free agent WR Kenny Britt for a workout on Sunday.
Rapoport says that if all goes well and his hamstring is healthy, Britt could re-sign with the Patriots.
New England is clearly in need of some receiver help and Britt is familiar with their offensive system and among the best available options at this point in the year.
Britt, 29, is a former first-round pick of the Titans back in 2009. He spent five years in Tennessee before signing on with the Rams in 2014.
The Browns signed Britt to a four-year, $32.5 million deal back in March of last year before waiving him in December. The Patriots later signed him to a two-year contract that included a 2018 team option.
New England officially exercised Britt’s option this past March only to release him during the preseason.
In 2017, Britt appeared in 12 games for the Browns and Patriots and caught 20 passes for 256 yards receiving and two touchdowns.
