After negotiating his own contract renewal, Onwenu looking to step up as a leader
One of the most important things the Patriots have done this offseason is re-sign Mike Onwenu. The versatile O-lineman (tackle) is entering his fifth year as a Patriot and is now looked at as a critical piece of the puzzle and a leader on this team.

Stevenson excited for AVP’s offense & open to staying in New England long term
Heading into a contract season, Rhamondre Stevenson is in a good position.

Adam Schefter reported that the Pats and Christian Barmore agreed to an extension worth up to $92 million, with Jeremy Fowler confirming the big defensive tackle would be making $41.8 million guaranteed.
