The final Countdown - 2026 training camp

[PatsFan2]

The majority of his money is paid this season - 3.7 mil plus roster bonus. He already got his signing bonus and his 2026 salary is guaranteed - this season. The Pats evidently have plans for Gilliam and not just Special Teams.

If things dont pan out with him he walks with over 4 mil in his pocket.

He must be mostly ST's.. the few Blocks I saw from him wasn't earth shattering.

He was around 6'1".

SB46 and VW, Bianca and I believe Ty Warren walked right by me at the team hotel in Indy. They were looking for chow. I almost asked Bianca if it would be Ok with your body guards if I got your autograph.

Last season, I saw a need for a power RB his size.

Maybe he gets more involved in the offense.

A Guy who has 8 career Rushes in Seven years?? Color me scared if he ever touches the Football.

He has not been given touches.

Surely the Patriots left an out in the contract to where Gilliam must be on the team to secure the 2027 guaranteed salary. The signing bonus is pledged and his 2026 salary too if on the roster.

Contract details for Patriots free agency signing Reggie Gilliam

The Patriots signed the unrestricted free agent to a three-year contract.

As for the structure of the deal itself, it effectively guarantees Gilliam a spot on the roster in 2026 and also makes for a favorable outlook in 2027. His guarantees in both of those seasons, after all, are substantial and include the two years’ base salaries as well as his prorated $2.4 million signing bonus. That would not prevent the team from moving on, especially post-June 1, 2027, but it suggests that he is in the team’s plans for at least two seasons.

for 2027, they did not
his guarantee covers this;
2026 base -$1.3m
2027 base-$2.3m
signing bonus-$2.4m
total guarantee-$6m
2028 is their out, otherwise he is covered for 2026 and 2027 with his guarantee

it's funny watching a player shrink 3 inches to fit an agenda, and the poster completely ignoring the hypocrisy!

2 inches isn’t 3 inches… stop with the hypocrisy.

I liked Lampe a lot last year

Why, he didn’t make the active roster or play, we barely saw him practice.

 

[Wozzy]

I'm hoping in the more traditional FB Brock Lampe...dudes a Tank and Blocks like one.

Jag

I'm intrigued to see Lan Larison too: him and Lampe were both shut down last year.

Both were injured. Larison has some talent but unlike last offseason he has more talented competition around him.
