There has been a lot of chatter over the past month about the Patriots' potential involvement in a blockbuster trade for one of the top players still holding out for a massive contract extension. That has connected them to pass rushers Trey Hendrickson and Micah Parsons, as well as wide receiver Terry McLaurin.
Over the past week, it has looked like their chances at pulling off a trade for two of those names became increasingly unlikely, while the possibility of a trade for Parsons has seemingly increased, as things between him and the Cowboys have only worsened.
