Daily Patriots Notebook 3/9: Cross Talib Off the List of Possible Free Agents

It’s Friday, so we’ll wrap up the week with another quick edition this morning.

Cross Talib off the List of Potential Additions – While Aqib Talib had suggested he was interested in potentially going back to New England, some news on Thursday evening put an end to that possibility.

According to ESPN’s Adam Schefter, the Broncos and Rams have agreed to a trade, which will send Talib to Los Angeles and reunite him with former Broncos coordinator Wade Phillips.

Schefter reports that both Phillips and Bill Belichick were the two people Talib preferred to play for and the Broncos opted to wisely send him out of the Conference rather than to an AFC Rival.
