Patriots host four RBs, two DBs and WR for free-agent workouts

With James White sidelined indefinitely with a hip injury, the New England Patriots are looking at potential additions at running back.

They had four running backs in for free-agent workouts on Tuesday, per NFL Media's Ian Rapoport. Also in attendance were two defensive backs and a wide receiver.

The four RBs were Ryquell Armstead, Dontrell Hilliard, Artavis Pierce, and Ito Smith. DJ Daniel and Stephen Denmark were the DBs, and the wideout was Anthony Johnson.

Armstead has spent the last two NFL seasons with the Jacksonville Jaguars, who selected him in the fifth round of the 2019 draft.
