A.J. Brown Workout with Patriots Safety Fuels Trade Rumors

Here's more NFL news for March 20th.

Trade rumors linking wide receiver AJ.

Brown to the New England Patriots are heating up after photos surfaced of him working out

with safety, Kevin Byard.

Byard just signed a one-year deal with New England after they were teammates on the

Tennessee Titans.

The timing of these offseason images has fans and insiders talking.

Byard and Brown go way back from their Titans days where both earned all pro honors multiple

times.

The Patriots desperately need a top receiver and their coach has ties to Brown from past

connections.

This workout has only added to the speculations swirling all offseason.

Julian Edelman, a Patriots legend, jumped in by sharing a clip from Brown's recent interview.

In it, Brown gave a playful wink when asked about possibly heading to New England which

set social media on fire.

Philadelphia, Brown's current team, has been shopping him but might hold off until after

June 1st.

That way, they avoid swallowing over $40 million in deadcap space if a deal happens.

For now, all eyes aren't whether these hints turn into real action as the offseason rolls

on.
