The New England Patriots are attempting to upgrade their secondary this offseason and after already signing all-world cornerback Darrelle Revis earlier this week, they have now added former Seattle Seahawks defensive back Brandon Browner.
The Patriots will have Browner to work with throughout the offseason, but the former undrafted free agent out of Oregon State will have to miss the first four games of the 2014 regular season while he serves a suspension violating the league’s substance abuse policy.
The Patriots lost cornerback Aqib Talib to the Denver Broncos early on in free agency as he agreed to a six-year, $57 million free agent contract. Now that they’ve signed Revis and Browner, they should be in pretty good shape and better equipped to face Broncos quarterback Peyton Manning, should they face him again this year in the playoffs.
