Fred Davis has agreed upon a one-year deal with the New England Patriots.
Davis joined the Patriots on Monday, four days after being reinstated by the NFL from an indefinite suspension for a second violation of the league's substance abuse policy.
Davis, 29, played 72 games with the Redskins from 2008 to 2013. A second-round draft selection in 2008, Davis has 162 career receptions for 2,043 yards and 13 touchdowns.
The Patriots are well stocked at tight end, with Rob Gronkowski, Scott Chandler, Michael Hoomanawanui, Tim Wright and rookie AJ Derby.
