The New England Patriots have released defensive end Adrian Clayborn White Marcus Cannon Jerseys , according to Clayborn himself. Clayborn notes that the Patriots “granted” his release, which implies that he requested to move on from the team.Clayborn had signed a 2-year deal with the Patriots ahead of the 2018 season. While he played in 17 games and picked up 3.5 sacks, he was also a healthy scratch and never played up to the level of his contract. He was going to count $5.94 million against the Patriots’ salary cap. His release frees up $3.94 million in cap space.New England also lost Trey Flowers and Malcom Brown in free agency, so the defensive front will have a whole different look in 2019.The Patriots current defensive end depth chart looks as follows:Michael BennettDeatrich Wise Jr.John SimonKeionta DavisDerek RiversTrent HarrisThe Patriots could use some additional talent at the position Marcus Cannon Jerseys 2019 , although Bennett, Wise, and Simon project to be the starting rotation at the position. Best of luck to Clayborn wherever he signs.

Cooper-USA TODAY SportsSince the Houston Texans fired Brian Gaine last Friday White Brandon Bolden Jerseys , they are in the market for a new general manager. They have set their sights on a familiar name: Nick Caserio. This is, of course, not the first time the club is after the New England Patriots’ director of player personnel. Before hiring Gaine last January, after all Brandon Bolden Jerseys 2019 , Houston asked the Patriots if it could conduct an interview with Caserio. New England declined the request at the time.The Texans ultimately settled on Gaine but with him no longer part of the organization are again trying to get Caserio on board — and are now accused of violating the NFL’s anti-tampering rules because of their efforts: as first reported by ESPN’s Adam Schefter, the Patriots have filed tampering charges against Houston for its pursuit of Caserio. The NFL is now “expected to gather relevant informant to open its investigation against Houston.”Two key elements of this investigation will be the timing of Gaine’s firing and the role of former Patriots team chaplain/character coach Jack Easterby.Let’s go through it step by step. Easterby left the Patriots after their Super Bowl win to pursue other opportunities, which he found in Houston where he was hired as executive vice president of team development in early April. Two months after joining the club, Easterby returned to his previous employer: he was in attendance for New England’s Super Bowl ring ceremony hosted by team owner Robert Kraft last Thursday.One day later White Ryan Allen Jerseys , Gaine was fired and Houston out to get Caserio on board — filing an official interview request on Tuesday; it has not been granted by the Patriots to date. The timing of Gaine’s firing certainly looks suspicious one day after a likely meeting between Easterby and Caserio. New England apparently thinks it is more than just a coincidence, but rather a violation of the league’s anti-tampering policy (p.2):Could Easterby have interfered and spoken with Caserio about potentially joining him in Houston? It certainly is possible, although we know nothing yet but the Patriots filing an official complaint.
