Patriots' Phil Lutz: Signs with New England

The Patriots signed Lutz on Monday, Mike Reiss of ESPN.com reports.

New England is dealing with new injuries to Kyle Williams (undisclosed) and Efton Chism (undisclosed), so the team needs a healthy body ahead of this week's preseason finale. Lutz recorded a 45-863-11 receiving line at Delaware last season but wasn't selected in the 2025 Draft.
