The New England Patriots signed 2020 third-round draft pick Dalton Keene to a contract, the team announced Friday.
With the tight end in the fold, the Patriots have signed all but one of their 10 picks from the 2020 NFL Draft. New England’s second-round pick, safety Kyle Dugger out of Lenoir-Rhyne, is the lone member of the team’s draft class yet to be signed.
Keene, 21, recorded 59 receptions for 748 yards and eight touchdowns over his three seasons at Virginia Tech. He had 21 catches for 240 yards and a career-best five scores in 13 games last season.
Keene joins fellow third-round pick Devin Asiasi out of UCLA, Matt LaCosse, Ryan Izzo, Rashod Berry and Jake Burt as tight ends on the roster.
