Apr. 27 - Looking to bolster their linebacker corps, the Patriots are exploring the possibility of signing free-agent linebacker Chad Brown, according to the Boston Globe. The 35-year-old Brown, recently released by the Seahawks, visited with Patriots officials on April 25.
"Outside linebacker is an example of a position where we haven't drafted anybody and really haven't signed anybody, and we need to go to camp with a couple more players than we have there," Patriots coach Bill Belichick said.
The Pittsburgh Post-Gazzette is reporting that Brown is expected to meet with the Steelers today. Brown played in Pittsburgh from 1993-96.
