The Patriots' secondary has already seen some big changes this offseason following the loss of Darrell Revis and Brandon Browner to free agency, and on Monday it looks like there will be yet another heading into 2015.
Mike Reiss of ESPN Boston reports that the Patriots appear to have informed Kyle Arrington of his release, seemingly marking the end of his tenure in New England.
Arrington struggled against Seattle in the Super Bowl but had been a pretty consistent contributor with that unit over the past couple of seasons, but it appears that the team might be looking to make a transition as they continue overhauling their secondary. However, according to Reiss, there's still a possibility Arrington could return.
Arrington played in 14 games in 2014 with just four starts, the fewest in five seasons after starting 14 in 2010 and 2011 and 12 in 2012 and 2013. He finished last season with 39 combined tackles, one sack and four passes defended.
