Trent Brown to Julio Jones: ‘Come be a Patriot’

Trent Brown hasn’t missed the madness taking place on TV and the internet over the last 12 hours.

The New England Patriots tackle tweeted to Atlanta Falcons receiver Julio Jones to invite him to join Bill Belichick and company. The social media post came after Jones went on Fox Sports’ “Undisputed” and fielded a question about a potential trade from the Atlanta Falcons.

“I’m out of there,” Jones said.

Jones also clarified on “Undisputed” that he wouldn’t be going to the Dallas Cowboys. He said he wanted to play for a winner.

Well, Belichick might just qualify as such. With the Patriots stocked after a big offseason, the team may be an enticing option for Jones.

The Patriots signed receivers Nelson Agholor and Kendrick Bourne this offseason during free agency. New England also added tight ends Jonnu Smith and Hunter Henry. They will join pass-catchers James White, Jakobi Meyers and N’Keal Harry, among others.

The question is: Will Jones join them?
