Patriots To Sign OL Luke Bowanko

Luke Bowanko will make his way to New England, moving to a new team for a third straight season. The Patriots agreed to terms with the free agent offensive lineman, Field Yates of ESPN.com tweets.

A former sixth-round Jaguars pick in 2014, Bowanko figures to compete for a depth spot as part of the Pats’ interior line behind the Joe Thuney/David Andrews/Shaq Mason trio. Bowanko has been a backup for the past three years but was a full-season starter at center as a rookie.

The Jags traded Bowanko to the Ravens just prior to last season, and he played in 16 games (with one start) during the 2017 slate.

New England re-signed LaAdrian Waddle and added Matt Tobin this offseason. Bowanko, 26, will join them in competing for a spot on the 53-man roster.
