After Malcolm Butler returned to Patriots, players started recruiting another star CB

The New England Patriots have struggled with social media recruiting during free agency. Edge Matthew Judon has led the charge, but hasn’t actually hooked any of the free agents he’s contacted on Twitter.

The Patriots have so far added cornerbacks Malcolm Butler and Terrance Mitchell and running back Ty Montgomery. They also traded for linebacker Mack Wilson. But Judon has ambitions to add more players. He and cornerback Jonathan Jones both want cornerback Stephon Gilmore to come back to New England,

Gilmore, Butler and Jonathan Jones were the top unit of cornerbacks just a few years ago. Jones and perhaps Butler seem to want to run it back.

Even if the Patriots have been quiet in free agency, the players seem to be enjoying themselves.
