FOXBOROUGH, Mass. - The New England Patriots have traded offensive tackle Justin Herron to the Las Vegas Raiders, reuniting Herron with his former offensive coordinator Josh McDaniels, league sources told ESPN on Wednesday.
The Patriots will receive a 2024 sixth-round pick from the Raiders in the trade, while Herron and a 2024 seventh-round pick go to the Raiders, according to sources familiar with the terms.
The 6-foot-5, 305-pound Herron, who started 11 games under McDaniels in New England between the 2020 and 2021 seasons (including playoffs), projects as a possible starter at right tackle, or as a top swing tackle.
