The New England Patriots have reportedly reached a deal to trade veteran kicker Nick Folk to the Tennessee Titans for a 2025 seventh-round draft pick, per NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport and Tom Pelissero.
It was reported early on Tuesday that the Patriots were fielding trade offers for Folk, who had a strong training camp this year.
Things got so competitive that New England considered carrying Folk on their roster, along with rookie kicker Chad Ryland. Coach Bill Belichick mentioned it as a possibility, and it seemed probable given how inconsistent Ryland was in training camp.
