Collie's hope to continue his NFL career has taken the wide receiver through Foxborough. Mike Reiss of ESPNBoston.com reported Tuesday that the New England Patriots had Collie in for a workout.

Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
Collie, 27, is working his way back from surgery to repair a ruptured patella tendon in his right knee, an injury he suffered last season with the Indianapolis Colts. Collie also has a history of concussions, three in total, the most recent coming during the 2012 preseason. He recently told USA Today that he was willing to risk a permanent brain injury to continue his football career. "
I'll sign a waiver, all right?" he said. "They're not going to have to worry about me suing. I'll hold myself to be accountable." As NFL.com's Dan Hanzus notes, a deal with the Patriots might be unlikely. Collie works out of the slot, a position the Pats have covered with Danny Amendola and Julian Edelman.
