The New England Patriots were entering the 2018 offseason with core members in all three phases of the game about to hit free agency. In the kicking game, Matthew Slater, Nate Ebner and Brandon Bolden were scheduled to hit the open market, while Brandon King was headed towards restricted free agency. The Patriots took care of Bolden last week and now re-signed another core special teamer.
As first reported by ESPN’s Field Yates, the Patriots signed Brandon King to a new contract:
The Patriots have re-signed special teams standout/DB Brandon King to a two-year deal through 2019, per league source.
