Karen Guregian of the Boston Herald reports that talks between the Patriots and free agent WR Wes Welker have ended for the day.
Welker is expected to test the open market, while the Patriots could start looking at alternative options.
The consensus remains that Welker is more likely to re-sign with the Patriots, but there’s now a better chance than ever that he could be playing elsewhere next season. We’ll have more as the news becomes available.
We have him listed as the No. 12 best available player in our Top 50 Free Agents list.
