The New England Patriots are about to have three quarterbacks on their roster. And none of them are Tom Brady.
For the first time since before 2000, the Patriots are entering a season without Brady, who has signed with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Over the last 20 seasons, he played 285 games for New England, and he had started all but four since the beginning of 2009.
Now, is it possible the Jarrett Stidham era is set to commence for the Pats?
On Sunday, New England agreed to a one-year deal with veteran quarterback Brian Hoyer, who will join Stidham and Cody Kessler as the quarterbacks on the Pats' roster, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport.
