Patriots Acquire DeVante Parker From Dolphins
3 years agoThe New England Patriots acquired wide receiver DeVante Parker and a 2022 fifth-round pick from the Miami Dolphins on Saturday in exchange for a 2023 third-round pick, according to sources. The move comes after the Dolphins pulled off a blockbuster trade for All-Pro wideout Tyreek Hill last week. Parker, who was a first-round pick in 2015, has two years left on a deal after he signed a three-year contract in 2019. Parker had only 40 catches for 515 yards and two touchdowns in 10 games in an injury riddled 2021 season. But the 29-year-old broke out in 2019 with 72 receptions, 1,202 yards and nine touchdowns with Miami and should have a more significant offensive role with the Pats. The addition of Parker is bad news for Kendrick Bourne, Nelson Agholor, Jakobi Meyers and N'Keal Harry, who is a candidate to be traded himself.
