Patriots Match Offer to Punter
Broncos Tried to Lure Sauerbrun
The Boston Globe and Boston Herald are reporting that the New England Patriots will match a deal the Denver Broncos offered punter Todd Sauerbrun.
This is kind of a no brainer with the luck the Patriots had with their punters last year. Sauerbrun did a pretty darn good job down the stretch (2 games) and in the playoffs (3 games), averaging 43.7 yards per punt with four inside the 20. Including incentives, the deal could be worth up to $1.4 million.
Both papers are also reporting that Patriots cornerback Randall Gay visited the New York Jets training facility but left Long Island without a deal.
