The final selection in the 2017 New England Patriots draft class will be returning for 2023.
The organization has reached agreement with offensive tackle Conor McDermott on a new contract, according to a report Saturday night from The Boston Globe’s Jim McBride.
McDermott, 30, entered the NFL in the sixth round at pick No. 211 overall and was waived after his rookie preseason. Stints with the Buffalo Bills and New York Jets followed before the UCLA product was signed back off the latter’s practice squad last November.
