Jalen Mills News
The New England Patriots have re-signed defensive back Jalen Mills on Wednesday. The two sides have agreed on a one-year contract worth up to $6.1 million for the 2023 season. The organization released Mills earlier this offseason, which saved the team $5 million in cap space. Now, the two sides come together again with what is likely a heavy incentive based contract. Mills recorded 31 tackles and two interceptions in 10 games with the Patriots last season. He's a quality defensive back, so this is a nice move by the Pats.
The New England Patriots released defensive back Jalen Mills on Friday, according to a source. The move saves the team around $5 million against the 2023 salary cap. Mills played in only 10 games in his second year with the Patriots in 2022 due to injuries and finished with a career-low 31 tackles (26 solo), two interceptions and five passes defensed. In his two years in New England, the 28-year-old recorded 61 solo tackles, two interceptions, 12 passes defensed and a fumble recovery in 26 regular season starts. The former seventh-round pick by the Philadelphia Eagles in 2016 should latch on with another team and should be ready for training camp this summer.
New England Patriots cornerback Jalen Mills wasn't activated from the Reserve/COVID-19 list by the deadline on Friday, which means he won't be eligible to play in Saturday's wild-card game against the Buffalo Bills. Mills went into the league's COVID protocols on Tuesday and didn't travel with the team to Buffalo. D'Angelo Ross and Daniel Ekuale have been called up as COVID replacements for the wild-card contest. The absence of Mills will make New England's secondary slightly more vulnerable. The 27-year-old started in all 16 of his appearances opposite J.C. Jackson. Mills played 913 defensive snaps, which was third on the team behind only Jackson and safety Devin McCourty.
