With a couple of open roster spots, the Patriots worked out a trio of players on Tuesday.

The Pats hosted wide receivers Jazz Ferguson and Kelvin McKnight, along with linebacker Sutton Smith, according to ESPN's Mike Reiss.

The open spot on the 53-man roster likely will be filled by tight end Ben Watson, who is set to return from his four-game suspension, but an open practice squad spot remains.

Ferguson went undrafted out of Northwestern State-Louisiana before joining the Seattle Seahawks this summer. The 6-foot-5 wideout had seven receptions for 119 yards during the preseason.

McKnight, an undrafted 5-foot-8 receiver out of Samson, spent the preseason with the Denver Broncos racking up seven catches for 43 yards.

Smith was selected in the sixth round of the 2019 draft by the Steelers. The Northern Illinois product totaled 29.5 sacks between his two collegiate seasons.
