The Patriots re-signed all of their top free agents so far this offseason except for one, and the lone player from that group could still end up being the odd man out.
Kyle Dugger “remains dissatisfied” with the Patriots’ decision to place the transition tag on him earlier this offseason, The Boston Herald‘s Andrew Callahan reported Sunday.
The Patriots’ decision to give Dugger the transition tag at the beginning of March was a bit of a surprise. While some speculated that the safety was likely to receive the franchise tag, the transition tag has been rarely used, with only five players receiving it in the previous 15 years.
