Just a day after Jakobi Meyers left New England to sign with the Raiders, the Patriots have reportedly found his replacement in free agency.
According to ESPN’s Adam Schefter, the Patriots signed wide receiver JuJu Smith-Schuster to a three-year, $33 million contract on Wednesday, with $22.5 million earned over the first two years of the deal.
Smith-Schuster confirmed the news on Twitter shortly after the first reports of his new deal were announced.
Smith-Schuster was a key cog in Patrick Mahomes’ offensive arsenal last season with the Chiefs.
