Free agent wide receiver Terrelle Pryor worked out for the New England Patriots on Tuesday, but there is no signing imminent, reports Jason Cole of Bleacher Report. 

Pryor has been signed and released by three different NFL teams in 2015. He signed a one-year contract with the Kansas City Chiefs as a quarterback and was released by the team on May 5. He signed with the Cincinnati Bengals five days later, but was released on June 18.

After being cut by the Bengals, Pryor made the switch to receiver and was claimed off waivers by the Cleveland Browns. The team announced that Pryor had made the 53-man roster, but cut him on Sept. 10.

Pryor starred at quarterback for Ohio State, earning Big Ten Freshman of the Year honors in 2008 and being named Rose Bowl MVP in 2010 after leading the Buckeyes to a win over Oregon. However, his career was derailed by allegations of improper benefits and selling autographed memorabilia. 

Pryor was picked in the third round of the 2011 Supplemental draft by the Oakland Raiders.
