Just hours after ESPN’s Mike Reiss sounded fairly confident Jaylinn Hawkins would be remaining in New England, it appears things have taken a dramatic turn.<\/p>\n

According to ESPN’s Jeremy Fowler, Hawkins is planning to sign a 2-year deal with the Ravens<\/strong><\/a> worth $10 million.<\/p>\n

That’s a tough blow to New England, which suddenly has a pretty significant need in its secondary.<\/p>\n

Reiss appeared on Toucher & Rich on 98.5 The Sports Hub on Wednesday<\/strong><\/a>, and he sounded optimistic that a deal was going to get done.<\/p>\n

\u201cI think it\u2019s important, John [Wallach], and I think they\u2019re still working at that,\u201d said Reiss on a new Hawkins deal.\u00a0 \u201cI don\u2019t know where that stands right now, but I know, as we\u2019ve heard Hawkins publicly say, he\u2019d love to come back. Not sure why that isn\u2019t done yet, but maybe something that unfolds today.\u201d<\/p>\n

Reiss added that, \u201cOne way or the other,\u201d we might soon have an answer.<\/p>\n

He was right, just not in the way he initially might have thought.\u00a0 Instead, it looks like Hawkins is moving on.<\/p>\n

The veteran finished the regular season with six passes defended, good for 4th on the team behind Marcus Jones (11), Christian Gonzalez (10), and Carlton Davis (10).\u00a0 He also led the team in interceptions with four.<\/p>\n

He was also one of the Patriots’ most reliable players, playing 92.1% of the defensive snaps<\/strong>\u00a0<\/a>through 15 of the Patriots\u2019 17 regular-season games, along with 838 snaps on defense, third most behind Carlton Davis (926) and Craig Woodson (950).<\/p>\n

That’s a pretty tough hole to fill.\u00a0 Woodson was terrific all year alongside him, but now they’ll need someone else back there as a replacement in 2026.<\/p>\n

It’s definitely surprising, since all indications seemed to be at the end of the season that Hawkins wanted to come back, but clearly something went awry in the negotiations.<\/p>\n

For now, Hawkins becomes the 13th player out for the club this offseason<\/strong><\/a>, leaving the Patriots forced to look for their next man up.\u00a0 In the meantime, they did sign Bears free agent safety Kevin Byard to a 1-year, $9 million deal on Wednesday.<\/p>\n

Byard finished the 2025 season second on the team in tackles for Chicago, along with seven interceptions and eight passes defended.\u00a0 He also had two tackles for a loss in the postseason for the Bears back in January.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
