New England Patriots defensive tackle David Olajiga will wear No. 96 for the team, per the team's official website.
Olajiga, a London native, was signed as part of the International Pathway Program. That means he does not count against the Patriots' 90-man roster limit set by the NFL.
The Patriots spent all offseason trying to improve their defensive front. Their big free agent signing back in March was former Philadelphia Eagles defensive tackle Milton Williams. They also used a fourth-round draft pick on Florida State rookie defender Joshua Farmer.
