The New England Patriots are signing running back Jeremy Hill, a source told ESPN's Field Yates.
Hill rushed for 116 yards and a touchdown in seven games with the Cincinnati Bengals last term before being placed on season-ending injured reserve with an ankle injury.
The veteran running back ran for 11 touchdowns in 2015, tying for the NFL lead.
Hill quickly fell out of favor in Ohio but could rejuvenate his career with the Patriots, who lost Dion Lewis during free agency.
