The New England Patriots are set to retain tackle Trent Brown, according to multiple reports. New England had some reason for concern, with Brown flying out to meet with the Seattle Seahawks. But their contract offer helps Brown leverage for more money from the Patriots.
Now Brown is back to retake his spot on the right edge of the Patriots offensive line. It seems fans are thrilled. Twitter erupted with celebration, in part because Patriots fans probably couldn’t stomach seeing a third starting offensive lineman leave after the team traded away guard Shaq Mason and failed to retain guard Ted Karras.
Here’s what media members and fans had to say on Twitter following the news.
