The New England Patriots have some work to do ahead of Tuesday's 4 p.m. ET deadline to trim rosters to 53 players. Could another trade be part of that work?
The Patriots have "solicited interest in their defensive line depth" prior to Tuesday's deadline, Sports Illustrated's Albert Breer reported Monday, noting that defensive tackles Montravius Adams and Akeem Spence are names to watch.
Adams and Spence both are relative newcomers in New England; the 26-year-old Adams signed with the Patriots in March after four seasons with the Green Bay Packers, while the 29-year-old Spence joined the Patriots' practice squad last November and appeared in six games late in the season.
