Patriots to sign another from CFL - Extra Points - Boston.com
Defensive lineman Armond Armstead won't be the only Canadian Football League player with the Patriots this offseason. The team has agreed to terms with Brockton native and former Northeastern standout end/linebacker Jason Vega on a contract, CFL and NFL sources said.
The Blue Bombers have to release him from his contract before he can sign with an NFL team.
Contract details aren't known, but similar structure to Armstead (three years) with less guaranteed money.
Vega (6-4, 255 pounds) ran 4.6 seconds in the 40-yard dash. He had 12 sacks in two seasons with the Blue Bombers.
