The New England Patriots and long snapper Joe Cardona have reportedly agreed on a new four-year deal.
Former Patriots cornerback Jason McCourty broke the news on Thursday with ESPN’s Mike Reiss providing the contractual details.
Cardona, a former fifth-round draft pick, has been with the Patriots since 2015. There was hope that a deal would get done at some point. Specialists aren’t easily replaced, especially those that have played as well as Cardona has over the years for New England.
So it made sense for the team to go ahead and lock him down for another four years.
