INDIANAPOLIS -- Running back Corey Dillon won't be returning to the Patriots, but fullback Heath Evans will be in the fold. The team and Evans have agreed to terms on a two-year contract, according to a league source.
Evans, 28, was scheduled to become an unrestricted free agent March 2. He played in all 16 regular-season games and three playoff games last season, contributing in a variety of roles -- from lead blocker, to ball carrier, to reserve third-down running back, to special teams jack-of-all-trades.
