Exactly two weeks ago, we released a report that intimated recently-retired tight end Benjamin Watson was potentially considering coming back to play another season in the NFL – and with the New England Patriots, no less.
A 15-year veteran who played for the Pats from 2004-2009, it appears that Watson will be reuniting with Tom Brady and Bill Belichick for another go-around in 2019. A new report released today states that Watson has agreed to a one-year deal with New England that could pay him up to $3 million.
After he left the Patriots in 2009, Watson played three seasons with the Cleveland Browns before spending another three seasons with the New Orleans Saints.
