Patriots expected to sign Cooper and Robinson for $79 million

The New England Patriots are expected to sign two free agents, Amari Cooper and Cam Robinson, worth a combined $79 million. This follows their significant spending in the offseason, particularly on defense. Cooper, a five-time Pro Bowler, is projected to receive a two-year, $37 million deal. He previously struggled with the Buffalo Bills but had a strong season with the Cleveland Browns in 2023. Robinson, a left tackle, is projected to sign a three-year, $42 million deal. He was traded to the Minnesota Vikings last season and has 101 career starts, making him a key addition to protect quarterback Drake Maye.
