Patriots to sign tight end Eric Tomlinson

The Patriots are adding to their tight end room again, signing Eric Tomlinson to their 53-man roster according to the NFL Network.

Tomlinson, 27, is primarily a blocker. He entered the league as an undrafted free agent in 2015 and has been with the Eagles, Texans, Jets and, most recently, the Giants.

From 2016-2018 with the Jets, Tomlinson played in 39 games and made 16 catches for 193 yards and a touchdown while also playing a sizeable role on special teams.

The Jets cut Tomlinson around cut day this summer. He was picked up by the Giants and was on their roster for the first three games of this season before being let go there as well.
