Earlier this month, the New England Patriots waited on a player to choose a trade destination.
That was San Francisco 49ers wideout Brandon Aiyuk, who is still yet to resolve his trade request after the Patriots stepped away from further negotiations.
This week, they waited for a player on their roster to make a decision. That player is Matthew Judon.
After a rather public contract dispute this training camp, Judon and the Patriots brought their chapter to a close when New England traded the Pro Bowl pass rusher to the Atlanta Falcons for a third-round selection in the 2025 NFL Draft.
