The New England Patriots have been the focus of many trade rumors recently. With unhappy players on other teams such as Trey Hendrickson, Micah Parsons, and Terry McLaurin, the Patriots have plenty of capital to make a move for a disgruntled star.
Patriots executive vice president Eliot Wolf has expressed the franchise’s willingness to bring in a top player amid Trey Hendrickson trade rumors.
The Vikings are reportedly seeing a veteran receiver in a trade. Could they possibly work out a trade with the Patriots, who were just there?
Eliot Wolf said on Monday the Patriots are open to a trade acquisition, including one which would include a first- or second-round pick.
According to Fox News’ Armando Salguero, the New England Patriots are the latest team to enter the fray as a possible Hendrickson trade partner. If true, that makes it four teams reportedly interested and/or have actually contacted the Bengals to check in about a Hendrickson trade .
According to CBS Sports' Jared Dubin, the Patriots stand to benefit most if the Cowboys trade their star edge rusher. The Patriots have the NFL's largest salary cap space, with nearly $60 million available for the 2025 season. This financial flexibility puts them in a prime position to absorb Parsons.
With over $59 million in cap space, the Patriots are poised to make a big move before the start of the regular season, and NFL Network's Daniel Jeremiah believes the team could be eyeing two of the league's biggest stars at their position via trade.
