“Odds Are Against” S Patrick Chung Returning To New England

According to Mike Rodak of ESPN Boston, the “odds are against” S Patrick Chung re-signing with the team.

Rodak mentions that because the Patriots have Devin McCourty, Steve Gregory and Tavon Wilson still on their roster, allowing to leave would have a minimal effect of the depth at safety.

New England’s secondary has struggled considerably in recent years, but it’s not as though they would be losing a Pro Bowl caliber player in Chung. He was rated as the No. 39 best safety in the league by Pro Football Focus, so he’s at least a serviceable player.

We have him listed as the No. 55 best available player in our Top 100 Free Agents list.
