The New England Patriots kicked off their 2024 legal tampering period by adding a running back to the mix: Antonio Gibson, a former third-round draft pick by the Washington Commanders, will join the club on a three-year contract worth just under $11.3 million.
Gibson may not be a household name, but he has a track record of solid production and should fit in well with the new offense under coordinator Alex Van Pelt. Naturally, there is some optimism about the signing.
RB Antonio Gibson: Signed (3 years, $11.3M)
Bernd Buchmasser: With a new quarterback to lead the Patriots offense in 2024 (and beyond), adding a receiving back like Gibson as a security blanket makes plenty of sense.
