BREAKING NEWS: Atlanta Falcons Trade Mohamed Sanu to the New England Patriots

Fresh off of their 33-0 domination of the New York Jets, the New England Patriots have added another weapon for Tom Brady. They sent their 2020 second-round pick to the Atlanta Falcons in exchange for wide receiver Mohamed Sanu.

Bill Belichick has been searching for offensive upgrades dating back to the 2019 NFL Draft. Now, with the Falcons season getting worse with every passing week they were more open to making this move now.

In Sanu, the Patriots acquire a big slot and a target who can attack defenses in between the hashmarks and up the seams—replacing some of what they lost with the retirement of Rob Gronkowski. And as an added bonus for Belichick he’s an alumni of Rutgers.

Josh McDaniels gets a new toy to play with and New England has shown it’s willing to use all of their players’ talents. Well, Sanu has a perfect passer rating for his career (eight pass attempts, seven completions, four touchdowns) it will be interesting to see if his arm talents are used more often with his new team.

His contract runs through next season so this won’t be just a half-season rental.

New England is 7-0, just set the record for the biggest point differential through seven games (+175) but they are still looking for ways to improve the team.
