An offseason of reunions has kept on rolling for the Patriots, who have signed linebacker Harvey Langi to a one-year contract, according to agent Kenny Zuckerman.
Langi, who has spent the last two years with the Jets, was originally signed by the Patriots as an undrafted free agent in 2017.
A BYU product, Langi made the Patriots' 53-man roster out of training camp, and totaled one tackle in one appearance with the Patriots in 2017, but would ultimately appear in just one game after he was moved to the reserve/non-football injury list following a serious car accident in October.
Cut by the Patriots in 2018, Langi spent the season on the Jets' practice squad, and cracked New York's roster in 2019, where he totaled eight tackles over 16 games before recording a career-high 60 tackles in 14 games in 2020.
The 6-foot-2, 250-pound Langi will join a diverse and deep Patriot linebacker group now featuring Dont’a Hightower, Matt Judon, Kyle Van Noy, Josh Uche, Chase Winovich, Anfernee Jennings, Ja’Whaun Bentley, Raekwon McMillan, Terez Hall, Rashod Berry, LaRoy Reynolds, and 2021 draft picks Ronnie Perkins and Cameron McGrone.
