Mac Jones will be the starting quarterback for the upcoming season and it might be his last shot. That’s why the Patriots are giving him all the possible tools to compete in a very tough AFC East.

Nothing’s been the same for Bill Belichick after Tom Brady announced his retirement from the NFL. Now, the Patriots made a massive move trying to boost their chances at redemption.

Matthew Judon gets the money he asked with Patriots

Matthew Judon had been absent during the first days of training camp with the Patriots. Though he said it was for physical reasons, the truth is the star linebacker wanted an upgrade for his contract because of his tremendous performances on the field. 28 sacks in the last two seasons.

That’s why, according to a report from Adam Schefter, Robert Kraft finally decided to restructure Judon’s agreement. In 2023, the defensive player salary will go up from $2 million to $14 million guaranteed. In fact, the incentives could give him $18 million.

Matthew Judon signed a four-year, $56 million contract with the New England Patriots in 2021 when he became the best free agent available after his tenure with the Baltimore Ravens. Now, even with the adjustment, that deal remains the same regarding the number of seasons left. So, it’s still valid until 2025.

So, in the post Tom Brady era, the Patriots haven’t lived up to the expectations. Mac Jones doesn’t seem to bethe franchise quarterback of the future and a bigproblem is the AFC East got totally crowded. The Bills are already contenders, the rebuilding process in Miami is on track and the Jets are also on their way.

That’s why this offseason is crucial for the New England Patriots and, toward the start of free agency, one or two big splashes are definitely needed. Now, in an incredible turn of events, Matthew Judon might have revealed a major signing for Bill Belichick and histeam.

Matthew Judon ‘hints’ DeAndre Hopkins will go to the New England Patriots

Just a few days before the start of free agency, with many rumors swirling around the NFL, Matthew Judon went to Twitter for a big announcement. Believe it or not, the linebacker guaranteeda star wide receiver will sign with the New England Patriots.

“Breaking news. DeAndre Hopkins to the Patriots.” That was the message in the official Twitter account of Matthew Judon accompanied by two love emoticons to portray the situation. Whether this is true or not, it is yet to be seen.

It’s important to remember that DeAndre Hopkins is still under contract with the Cardinals. Nevertheless, Arizona might be open to a trade. Many reports point out that they could be looking for a first round pick in exchange for Hopkins, but a second round selection is not out of the conversation.

Jonathan Gannon, whowas the defensive coordinator for the Philadelphia Eagles, has been named as the new head coach for the Cardinals.Kilff Kingsburyis officially out.Kyler Murrayhasn’t lived to the expectations and the franchise might be, again, in rebuilding mode. That’s why a trade for DeAndre Hopkins is in playto stack some picks for the NFL Draft.

So, if we look at Matthew Judon’s message, the New England Patriots could become a potential suitor to add a DeAndre Hopkins to their offense. That could be another one of those masterful moves by Bill Belichick.
