Patriots' Jalen Mills: Returning to New England
Jalen Mills and the New England Patriots agreed to a new contract Wednesday, Jordan Schultz of TheScore.com reports.Reports last week suggested the Patriots planned to move on from Mills, but he'll end up sticking around in New England for at least one more season. The 28-year-old defensive back appeared in 10 games in 2022, recording a career-low 31 tackles while producing five pass deflections and two interceptions. Mills is expected to return to safety in 2023 after he operated as a cornerback the last two years, which could result in an uptick in his tackle production if he retains a near-full-time role on defense.

Jalen Mills (groin) is in line to be released by the Patriots, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.Moving on from Mills will save the Patriots around $5 million in salary cap space, allowing them to have more flexibility in free agency. The defensive back injured his groin in the team's regular-season finale, but he doesn't appear to be in danger of missing any time at camp wherever he ends up. Mills started 10 games with New England in 2022, compiling 31 tackles, two interceptions and five pass deflections. At age 28, he'll likely find another suitor in the near future.
