Former Patriots Receiver Brandon LaFell Reportedly Signs With Bengals

LaFell has agreed to a deal with the Cincinnati Bengals, according to his agents (via ESPN's Adam Schefter).
The receiver played in 27 games over his two seasons in New England, hauling in 111 catches for 1,468 yards and seven touchdowns. He had a pair of touchdowns in New England's title run in 2014, including the first touchdown of their Super Bowl XLIX win over the Seattle Seahawks.
