Due Diligence: Patriots Work Out Trio During Final Week of the 2021 Regular Season

As the New England Patriots prepare to travel south for their regular-season finale against the Miami Dolphins, they continue to stay focused on keeping their roster stocked with quality players heading into Week Eighteen. They may also have a watchful eye on potential candidates for futures contracts.

Over the past two days, the Patriots have hosted offensive lineman Drew Desjarlais, wide receiver Jaylen Smith and cornerback D.J. Daniel for workouts.

Listed at 6-foot-2, 314 pounds, Desjarlais is a sizable lineman. He attended the University of Windsor in Ontario, Canada. The 24-year-old earned invitations to rookie minicamps with the New York Giants and Pittsburgh Steelers in 2019.
