The New England Patriots have added another free agent to their new-look defense.
Veteran linebacker Harvey Langi has agreed to a one-year contract, according to his agent.
This will be Langi's second stint with the Patriots. They signed him as an undrafted rookie free agent out of BYU in 2017. He played one game with the Pats before being placed on the non-football injury list after a car accident in October of 2017.
