NFL Rumors: Doesn’t Appear Patriots Pursued Andy Dalton Before Cowboys Signed QB

With each quarterback the New England Patriots decide to pass on, it becomes increasingly clear that they really do like Jarrett Stidham.

Andy Dalton is the latest signal-caller the Pats elected not to pursue, as Dalton signed with the Dallas Cowboys over the weekend. That came after the Patriots, as well as the Jacksonville Jaguars, initially were reported as being interested in the former Cincinnati Bengal.

Well, on Sunday, ProFootballTalk’s Mike Florio indicated the Patriots didn’t appear to be one of the teams pursuing Dalton.

“Per a source with knowledge of the situation, five teams pursued Dalton,” Florio wrote in his Sunday mailbag.
