UPDATE (6:05 p.m. ET): The New England Patriots announced Friday that first-round draft pick Malcom Brown has signed but didn’t disclose terms. The team also released veteran tight end Fred Davis, who signed last month and has 162 receptions for 2,043 yards and 13 touchdowns in his six-year NFL career, all with the Washington Redskins.
ORIGINAL STORY: The New England Patriots now have every player they selected in the 2015 NFL Draft under contract.
The last player to agree to terms was first-round pick Malcom Brown, a defensive tackle from the University of Texas. Brown and the Patriots agreed to his four-year rookie contract, NFL Media’s Ian Rapoport reported Friday, citing a source.
Brown is expected to be among the players who will replace veteran Vince Wilfork’s presence in the middle of the defensive line. Wilfork was released by the Patriots in March and signed a free-agent deal with the Houston Texans.
The Patriots completed minicamp this week and will return to Gillette Stadium for training camp in July.
