New England Patriots trade J.C. Jackson to the Kansas City Chiefs
It’s not a secret that Kansas City needs to find an upgrade or two at cornerback during the 2021 NFL Draft. Unfortunately, they are now likely to go offensive line in the first round after moving off starting tackles Eric Fisher and Mitchell Schwartz earlier in the offseason. Yielding a low second-round pick next week and a future third-rounder for Jackson would make the most sense here.
As for the Patriots, this is pretty much the best that they can ask for in return for a still-unproven and oftentimes inconsistent performer.
