The New England Patriots will now have two Arizona Wildcats on their roster to open the season, as they have traded a seventh-round pick to the Cincinnati Bengals for Marquis Flowers.
Flowers was drafted in the sixth round, No. 212 overall in the 2014 NFL Draft by the Bengals. He signed a four-year, $2.3 million contract as a rookie, and is entering the final year in his contract. It’s nice because he is due to make $690,000 in 2017.
Flowers has primarily been used on special teams in the NFL.
