Things are looking bleak for the New England Patriots these days.
As the team seems closer and closer to potentially losing their grip on Tom Brady remaining QB1 in 2020, other free agents on the team are garnering major interest around the league already — and there’s still more than two weeks to go before free agency even begins.
First it was wide receiver Phillip Dorsett who was drawing interest from other NFL franchises during the combine, with several teams reportedly setting up meetings with his representation this week in Indianapolis.
Now, it appears that two of the Patriots’ most valuable offensive linemen — Joe Thuney and Ted Karras — are the hottest commodities out there in the early rumors and rumblings of free agency (at least as far as O-line men are concerned).
