Patriots staying in touch with Dont'a Hightower
The New England Patriots are still "keeping close tabs" on free agent linebacker Dont'a Hightower, Jason La Canfora of CBS Sports reports.
What It Means:
The Patriots were comfortable letting Hightower set his value on the open market, and that is looking like a good decision early in free agency. Although there have been reports about interest, Hightower has yet to be solidly linked to any team. With New England seemingly in win-now mode, they should be looking to bring back Hightower if the price is right.
The Patriots' defense ranked 11th in the league by opponent-adjusted Defensive Net Expected Points per play this season.
