NE Patriots Draft has learned that the Patriots will hold a private workout with Georgia DT Jeff Owens next Friday.
Owens impressed scouts lately with his solid showing at the Georgia Pro Day. Owens was clocked at 4.9 in the 40-yard dash, and benched 225 pounds an amazing 44 times.
Owens is a double-team eater that isn’t really known for his pass rush skills. His stocky build (6-1/305) could allow him to be used as a rotational NT behind Vince Wilfork.
