With the Patriots flush with cap space and in desperate need of playmakers, one NFL general manager believes that a rebuilding New England team will open up its wallet to bring in free-agent wideout Tee Higgins.
Veteran NFL reporter Jason La Canfora of The Washington Post doled out a “six big predictions for the NFL offseason” piece this week, with La Canfora gauging discourse from several NFL GMs and executives across the league before the offseason picks up.
And with New England leading all NFL teams with $119 million in cap space this spring, the writing seems to be on the wall that a desperate Patriots team will throw a hefty offer at Higgins after a productive season with the Bengals.
