It has been an interesting week for the New England Patriots offensive line.
With the 2022 League Year having begun just over 24 hours ago, New England has already lost starting left guard Ted Karras to free agency [signing with the Cincinnati Bengals], and has traded starting right guard Shaq Mason to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
Besides the departures of both Karras and Mason, starting right tackle Trent Brown — currently an unrestricted free agent — was expected to visit the Seattle Seahawks on Thursday. Though the Patriots are still expected to be in the hunt to retain his services, Brown is apparently exploring his options on the open market.
