Smith-Schuster’s time in New England comes to an end after just one season with the Patriots. Signed to a three-year, $33 million contract ahead of the 2023 season, he appeared in just 11 games for the team last season, making seven starts. His production was meager, finishing with 26 catches for 260 yards and one touchdown.
