Well, this isn’t a huge surprise, I thought that Cannon wouldn’t be on the roster by the time the regular season rolled around, and now, his time in New England is over as he is dealt to Houston.
This was always on the cards after the Trent Brown news came about last week, and the Patriots move quickly to find Cannon a new home and exchange picks in the process.
A good deal all around, Cannon gets a new start with a familiar face in Nick Caserio, and the Patriots upgrade their 4th, 5th, and 6th round choices in a pick swap for this year’s Draft.
On his way out, Cannon will be proud in knowing he helped the team secure three Super Bowl titles and got paid well in the process. A solid pro.
