Safety Jabrill Peppers joined the Patriots last year while recovering from a torn ACL and he was able to play well enough while appearing in all 17 games to earn a new two-year contract with the team this offseason.
Based on head coach Bill Belichick’s assessment of where Peppers is at this point in the offseason, the expectation in New England will be for an even better year for Peppers. Belichick was asked at his Tuesday press conference if he’s seen any “particular growth” from Peppers heading into his second season with the team.
