The New England Patriots announced on Saturday they were placing the veteran offensive tackle on injured reserve, which will knock him out for at least the next four games. Granted, he could return if the Patriots make the playoffs, but as of right now, the curtains have closed on Wynn.
It has been a disappointing season for the former first-round draft pick, who struggled with penalties and on-field inconsistencies.
He didn’t do much to convince the Patriots for a big extension or another team to step up and offer him a lucrative contract. It could potentially set him up with some sort of prove-it deal on the free agent market in 2023.
