AP Source: Raiders trading Trent Brown back to Patriots
Tackle Trent Brown will head back to the New England Patriots two years after signing a lucrative free agent deal to join the RaidersMARCH 9, 2021 • ASSOCIATED PRESS
Dealt to New England The Raiders agreed Tuesday to trade Brown (knee) and a 2022 seventh-round pick to the Patriots in exchange for a 2022 fifth-round pick, Mike Reiss of ESPN.com reports.
Impact Brown had two years remaining on a four-year, $66 million contract, but he's agreed to restructure to a one-year deal worth up to $11 million, perhaps knowing he'd be released if the Raiders weren't able to trade him. This is the second time New England has traded for Brown, having previously acquired him from the 49ers in April 2018. He then had arguably the best season of his career, which led him to Oakland (and then Vegas) on the aforementioned massive contract. Brown missed 16 games in his two years with the Raiders, but he earned respectable PFF grades both seasons (68.9, 69.1) and he's still young enough (28 in April) to rediscover his top form if he stays healthy. There hasn't been any indication that Brown's knee injury from the end of the 2020 season is serious, so he'll likely be lined up at one of the tackle spots when the first-team offense takes the field at training camp.

Could be traded The Raiders have made Brown (knee) available for trade, Jeremy Fowler of ESPN.com reports.
Impact Brown is on the trade block, though Fowler also notes that the Raiders could consider retaining him for 2021. Were it not for the soon-to-be 28-year-old's $13.75 million salary for next season, Las Vegas likely wouldn't even be considering parting ways with Brown. As is, though, the team is in a tricky position, especially considering that two starters along the O-line (Gabe Jackson and Richie Incognito) are already being let go.
