Former NFL physician David Chao mentions that this, unfortunately, puts Barmore’s 2024 season in jeopardy due to the prolonged blood thinner usage required.
Barmore, 24, was a second-round pick by the Patriots in the 2021 NFL Draft out of Alabama. He’s entering the final year of a four-year, $8,522,242 million rookie contract that included a $3,557,994 million signing bonus and was set to make a base salary of $1.822 million in 2024 when he agreed to a new four-year extension with the Patriots worth up to $92 million.
In 2023, Barmore appeared in all 17 games and recorded 64 tackles, 13 tackles for loss, and 8.5 sacks.
We wish Barmore the best and a speedy recovery.
