Report: Patriots signing WR Maurice Harris
The New England Patriots are not slowing down on what’s become a busy Thursday for the defending Super Bowl champs, as they will sign free agent wide receiver Maurice Harris, #Patriots are signing former #Redskins WR Maurice Harris, source says. He was there on a visit with Bruce Ellington, who also will sign with New England, as @RapSheet said earlier.
An undrafted talent out of California, the 26-year-old Harris spent the first three seasons of his NFL career with the Washington Redskins, but was not tendered a contract as a restricted free agent.
The 6-foot-3 wideout appeared in 12 games for the Redskins last year, and totaled a career-best 28 catches and 304 yards.
The Harris signing continues what’s been a busy day at wideout for the Patriots, who have already signed Bruce Ellington to a one-year deal, and have reportedly shown an interest in Golden Tate.
