Patriots announce deals with Epps, Hollins, Hooper and Tonga

FOXBOROUGH, Mass. (AP) — The New England Patriots continued to add to their growing list of free agent signings, announcing deals Friday with safety Marcus Epps, receiver Mack Hollins, tight end Austin Hooper and defensive tackle Khyiris Tonga.

The Patriots have added 10 new players since the start of the new league year.

Terms of the deals were not announced by the team, but Epps' confirmed on social media that his new pact is for one year and worth up to $4.4 million. He spent last season with the Las Vegas Raiders and is coming off offseason knee surgery but is expected to be ready by the start of training camp.

Hollins' agency said his two-year deal is worth up to $8.4 million spent last season in Buffalo and has played for five teams over his seven NFL seasons,

Hooper was one of the Patriots quarterback Drake Maye's most dependable targets last season. He is back in New England on a reported two-year, $5 million deal. Tonga has been brought in on what has been reported as two-year deal to possibly fill the void created by the trade of Davon Godchaux to New Orleans.
