Ultimately, Trent Brown was not a believer in the offensive line for Derek Carr and the Raiders.
After signing a four-year, $ 66 million contract with Las Vegas ahead of the 2019 season, Brown played only 16 of 32 games over the course of the following campaigns. The Raiders on Tuesday decided to cut the bait with Brown, allegedly exchanging him with the Patriots as part of a selection exchange.
Despite not meeting expectations with Silver and Black, Brown still has a fan on Carr, who dropped a comment on one of the Instagram posts the veteran attacked after returning to New England.
“Thank you, bro!” Carr wrote.
Brown now returns to the team with whom he posted his best professional season so far. The Patriots still have a lot of work to do to fix the halted attack, but the offensive line is becoming a strong point for New England in 2021.
