DB tryouts
The Patriots worked out two more defensive backs earlier this week -- Von Hutchins and Lenny Williams.
Hutchins (5-9, 181 pounds) spent part of the last two seasons with the Colts. Williams (5-10, 188) is a first-year player who has been in training camp with the Cowboys.
This is the time of year when the Patriots usually update their emergency lists at each position, and bring players in for tryouts. The team tapped into its emergency list at cornerback on Tuesday, signing Hank Poteat.
The team's defensive backs are banged up, with cornerback Ellis Hobbs (questionable, wrist) and safeties Eugene Wilson (questionable, hamstring) and Artrell Hawkins (questionable, thigh) on this week's injury report.
Other defensive backs to have tryouts with the Patriots in the past few weeks include Lance Schulters, Keion Carpenter, Brent Alexander, Ray Mickens and Raymond Walls.
