The Facts: Agent Chad Speck just confirmed that Washington paid a visit to Gillette Stadium today, as the Palm Beach Post reported earlier. Speck declined to comment much beyond that, but his client may be an intriguing target for the Patriots to pursue.

Diehards Line:According to Herald staffer Albert Breer, Washington, stuck behind Chad Johnson, T.J. Houshmandzadeh and Chris Henry in Cincinnati, is likely to be seen by the Patriots as a diamond-in-the-rough type that may be worth taking a shot at. The Dolphins are also in the mix for his services.
