HIGHTOWER'S BACK!!! (UPDATE: his contract is less than originally reported)

Edit: So the Patriots didn't pay Hightower the reported 4-year, $43.5 million deal ($19 million guaranteed). It's almost $10 million less. $35.5 million over 4 years ($17 million guaranteed)

Is this official? I'll be worried until I see contract details. So happy though!

That's his agent, FYI.

But can he rush the passer?

Thank you thank you thank you. I have clicked on this site every two minutes since 7 this morning waiting for this news. Grateful to have him back, love him as a player and I think it was critical for their defense and offseason. Now they really only have to resolve the Butler situation and add a pass rusher to have all of the offseason heavy lifting done.

Just shy of 11 per.

**** yes.

On to Minnesota

Huge! Respect to Hightower taking less $ to stay too.

As of right now, the 2017 Pats have arguably the best roster in franchise history.

Keep Butler and we have a projected top 10 offense all time and maybe the best defense in the NFL. Comeon Bill!

Great deal! Less guaranteed than I expected, but I'm happy to have him back for 4 years, and at a very reasonable amount per annum. What a fantastic offseason.

Fantastic!!! Great news!

So glad to have Hightower back.
To echo what was said above, BB and HT handled the whole situation deftly.

The "worry" gene fascinates me

Ugh finally. This was starting to stress me out. Now just have to wait to see what they are going to do with Butler. Very Glad to have High back.

Cupcakes was a slap in the face. They should've served him a layer cake. Stupid Jets.
