Patriots OLB Anfernee Jennings re-signs on 3-year deal – Boston Herald

The Patriots and outside linebacker Anfernee Jennings have reached a 3-year, $12 million deal worth up to $24 million, a source confirmed to the Herald.

Jennings, a 2020 third-round pick, returns less than a day after the team agreed to terms with fellow 2020 edge rusher Josh Uche. Jennings started 14 games last season in a career year, when he tallied 1.5 sacks, but ranked among the league’s best run defenders off the edge. His return helps soften a need for the Patriots, who now have him, Uche, Matt Judon and others back at the position.
