Since the start of the offseason, the Patriots have been connected to several of the top tradable players looking for a new extension. The most interest appeared to be over wide receiver Terry McLaurin, especially since all reports seemed to indicate that he was the farthest from getting a deal done with his team.
That is no longer the case now, after the past week of rumors suggested they were closing in on a new contract to keep him in Washington for the long haul. It was announced on Monday morning that McLaurin signed a three-year extension that officially made him the sixth-highest-paid receiver in the NFL for the 2025 season.
