During a week that has seen the New England Patriots be arguably the most active they have ever been in free agency, the team did have to say goodbye to veteran guard Joe Thuney on Tuesday.
Thuney signed a five-year, $80 million contract with the defending AFC Champion Kansas City Chiefs as they look to build new protection in front of quarterback Patrick Mahomes.
A third round draft pick (78th overall) by the Patriots in 2016 out of North Carolina State, Thuney started all 80 regular season and all ten playoff games for the Patriots during his five year tenure in Foxborough.
