The New England Patriots are signing safety Jabrill Peppers to a one-year contract, according to multiple reports. Peppers visited New England on a free-agency visit on Monday and the two parties must have discovered mutual appreciation.
For the last two seasons, Peppers, who tore his ACL last season, played under former New York Giants coach and current Patriots offensive assistant Joe Judge. The Cleveland Browns drafted him in the first round in 2017. He played there in 2017 and 2019 but the Giants traded for him (in the Odell Beckham blockbuster) in March 2020 and Peppers played for New York for three seasons.
