Mike Reiss of ESPN reports that the Patriots hosted free agent LB Andrew Gachkar for a visit on Tuesday.
Gachkar, 28, is a former seventh-round pick of the Chargers back in 2011. He played out his four-year, $2,085,900 rookie contract with the Chargers before signing a two-year deal with the Cowboys back in March of 2015.
Gachkar finished out that contract and has been testing the open market as an unrestricted free agent but this is the first reported interest in him since free agency got underway a few months ago.
In 2016, Gachkar appeared in all 16 games for the Cowboys and recorded 10 tackles and no sacks or interceptions.
