  Patriots | Colin McCarthy visits    Tue Mar 10, 09:59 PM

Free-agent LB Colin McCarthy (Titans) visited the New England Patriots Tuesday, March 10, according to a source.

Footballguys view: McCarthy, a 2011 fourth-round pick of the Titans, spent the 2014 season on injured reserve due to a shoulder injury. He started off his pro career well, but injuries have severely limited his playing time over the last few years. The Patriots are looking for linebacker depth here, and they're willing to take a chance on an injury-prone player with good upside.
