Source: Patriots sign ex-Saints WR Meredith

The New England Patriots have signed wide receiver Cameron Meredith, a source told ESPN, confirming multiple reports.

Meredith became a free agent when the New Orleans Saints released him Monday, four days into training camp. He played in six games for the Saints in 2018, posting nine receptions for 114 yards and a touchdown.

The Patriots have an open competition at receiver after Julian Edelman and first-round pick N'Keal Harry. In recent training camp practices, undrafted free agent Jakobi Meyers (NC State) has elevated to some first-unit reps, which highlights how the club continues to explore all options.
