Jalen Mills talks up switch to safety and 2023 outlook with Patriots

Jalen Mills was released by the New England Patriots in March but was then picked back up by the organization shortly after.

Some have pondered the reasoning for that initial release, but it isn’t something Mills wants to give that much energy to at the moment. Right now, he’s putting his focus completely into football.

Mills recorded 31 tackles and two interceptions last season. In 2023, he’s looking to move from cornerback to the safety position. He’ll be contributing to a group that includes the likes of Kyle Dugger, Adrian Phillips, Jabrill Peppers and possibly even rookie Marte Mapu.
