FOXBOROUGH — Jalen Mills took to social media in the offseason to remind folks of his versatility.
Now he plans to do the same on the field.
With rumors swirling of his imminent release by the Patriots, the 29-year-old veteran, who played cornerback the last two seasons, took to Twitter to post a couple of notes, including, “Y’all know I really play safety right?” and “Y’all know I’m really a hybrid right?”
They led to a lot of speculation — and eventually a reworked contract to stay in New England, a place he never wanted to leave.
