Report: Patriots Super Bowl hero Malcolm Butler is attempting an NFL comeback

Former Patriots cornerback Malcolm Butler is working out with the Atlanta Falcons, according to Aaron Wilson of KPRC2, a local TV news station in Houston.

“‘Malcolm is motivated and in great playing shape,” Butler’s agent Justin Allen told Wilson. “He worked his way back. I feel like his passion and love for the game is there and he has a lot to give to the secondary in Atlanta.”

Butler hasn’t played in an NFL regular-season game since 2020 when he was with the Titans. Since then, he’s kept in contact with teams and has been “training for a chance like this,” reports Cameron Wolfe of NFL Network.
