The New England Patriots hosted linebacker/safety Josh Harvey-Clemons and wide receiver Marlon Williams for free agent workouts Monday, according to multiple reports.
Harvey-Clemons spent the last four seasons with the Washington Football Team, playing mainly on special teams. The 27-year-old opted out of the 2020 campaign due to COVID-19 concerns and was released by Washington in March.
Williams is an undrafted rookie. He played with Patriots seventh-round draft pick Tre Nixon at UCF, catching 71 passes for 1,039 yards and 10 touchdowns in eight games as a senior.
Only five FBS players caught more passes than the 5-foot-11, 209-pound Williams in 2020, and only eight tallied more receiving yards. He also ranked third nationally in receptions per game (8.9), fifth in receiving yards per game (129.9) and tied for seventh in touchdown catches.
At his pro day in April, Williams ran a 4.59-second 40-yard dash with a 4.57-second short shuttle, 33 1/2-inch vertical jump and 119-inch broad jump.
Patriots veterans are scheduled to report for training camp Tuesday, with their first practice set for Wednesday morning. New England currently has a full 91-man roster, including their international exemption for fullback Jakob Johnson.
