The Patriots’ tryouts on Monday included former Giants defensive end Owa Odighizuwa, as Mike Reiss of ESPN.com tweets. There’s no word yet on how the tryout went, but the Pats could use some pass rush reinforcements following the events of this past offseason. 
For much of the offseason, it seemed like Odighizuwa was prepared to walk away from football at the age of 25. After taking some time to mull it all over, Odighizuwa was a late entrant to Giants camp and put himself in the mix to make the final 53-man cut. He struggled in practice, however, and his four-game ban for PEDs was the final nail in the coffin.
Odighizuwa was a third-round pick of the G-Mne in 2015. He appeared in four games as a rookie and 14 last season, though he didn’t make much of an impact. His suspension expired this week, so he’ll be ready to rock immediately if New England chooses to sign him.
