Patriots Pursue Offensive Line Reinforcements

As the NFL trade deadline approaches, the New England Patriots are balancing between being buyers and sellers, considering trading several veterans such as Kyle Dugger, Davon Godchaux, and Kendrick Bourne while seeking to bolster their offensive line. They reportedly attempted to acquire offensive tackle Cam Robinson from the Jaguars before he was traded to the Vikings and are also interested in free agent D.J. Humphries, a former Pro Bowl tackle. The Patriots have struggled with offensive line consistency, allowing 27 sacks this season, and are looking to provide better protection for rookie quarterback Drake Maye, who recently suffered a concussion. Despite their 2-6 record, the team is actively exploring options to improve their roster. Godchaux expressed surprise at being mentioned in trade talks, stating his commitment to the team's ongoing process. The outcome of their efforts remains uncertain as they navigate potential trades and free agent signings.
