The New England Patriots plan to release wide receiver Mohamed Sanu, the NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport reported Wednesday night.
New England acquired Sanu from the Atlanta Falcons for a second-round pick in the 2020 NFL Draft, but the wideout played only nine games with his new team. The Patriots are reportedly trying to trade Sanu before releasing him, according to the NFL Network’s Tom Pelissero.
Sanu caught just 26 passes for 207 yards and one touchdown last season after joining the Patriots for Tom Brady’s last season in New England.
The 31-year-old was very productive in Atlanta with Matt Ryan from 2016-2018. He caught 192 passes for 2,194 yards and 13 touchdowns during that span and helped the Falcons to the Super Bowl.
