FOXBOROROUGH, Mass. -- New England Patriots defensive tackle Alan Branch hopes to play a 12th season in the NFL in 2018, but will it be with the Patriots?
Asked his plans for the upcoming season, Branch said Tuesday on sports radio WEEI's "Dale and Holley Show with Rich Keefe" that he plans to "milk it as much as I can" before adding, "I love playing football. As long as they keep paying me money, I'm going to try to do it."
The Patriots have a key decision to make on paying Branch, as there is a $1 million roster bonus due on the first day of the 2018 league year on March 14.
