Patriots' Mike Onwenu reportedly fires agent just before free agency

Mike Onwenu is a free agent in more ways than one, it appears.

The New England Patriots offensive lineman "informed teams via email" that he has terminated his relationship with his agents, Roosevelt Barnes and Jovan Barnes, Pro Football Talk's Mike Florio reported Sunday.

Onwenu will be without an agent for at least the next few days, as NFL rules state players must wait at least five days after firing their agents before hiring a new one. Florio also added that the 26-year-old "might decide to represent himself."

Onwenu is one of the best Patriots players set to become an unrestricted free agent on March 13.
