Latest Fantasy Rumors
Not guaranteed starting job
Reiff is not guaranteed the starting right tackle job in New England to begin the 2023 season, Ben Volin of the Boston Globe reports.
ANALYSIS
Reiff signed a one-year, $4.25 million deal to join the Patriots this offseason and was viewed as the starter at right tackle. That may still be the case, but the Patriots worked out veteran D.J. Fluker last month and have deployed Sidy Sow, their fourth-round pick in the 2023 NFL Draft, at right tackle during the offseason program. Reiff played in 16 games with Chicago last season, starting 10.
