    A former Florida A&M University running back is inking a new deal with the National Football League.

    Florida A&M’s Terrell Jennings on Monday signed what his agent says is a contract worth nearly $3 million.

    The 6-foot-1, 225 pound running back from Duval County, Florida, signed a deal this week to play for the New England Patriots. Jennings, who led the Rattlers in rushing touchdowns in 2019, attended the team’s rookie mini camp.

    The undrafted free agent signed a three-year, $2.83 million deal.

    Jennings played in 13 games in 2023 and had 120 rushing attempts for 704 yards and 10 touchdowns. The former Rattler finished his career at FAMU last season with nearly 2,000 yards and 24 touchdowns.

    “Thank you father god I wouldn’t be in this position without you,” Jennings wrote on X.

    Monday’s signage puts him one step closer towards making the Patriots’ final 52-man roster.
