Patriots open free agency by adding Brissett, Gibson, bringing back Bourne, AP sources say

FOXBOROUGH, Mass. (AP) — The New England Patriots spent most of last season in shambles offensively. They spent first day of free agency trying to address that issue.

Quarterback Jacoby Brissett, receiver Kendrick Bourne and running back Antonio Gibson agreed to contracts with the Patriots, three people familiar with the deals told The Associated Press on Monday.

Brissett’s deal is one year for $8 million, with incentives that could push it as high as $12 million. Brissett played for the Washington Commanders last season alongside Gibson, who is getting $11.25 million from the Patriots over three years with $5.
