The New England Patriots had offensive line depth on their mind Sunday.
The Patriots acquired offensive lineman Vederian Lowe in a trade with the Minnesota Vikings, head coach Bill Belichick confirmed Monday morning. NFL reporter Jordan Schultz was the first to report the deal Sunday night, while ESPN's Mike Reiss reported New England gave up a sixth-round pick to acquire Lowe.
The Vikings selected Lowe in the sixth round of the 2022 NFL Draft out of Illinois, where he was a four-year starter at left tackle and tied the school's record for career starts with 52.
