Patriots sign DT Milton Williams, DB Carlton Davis, and LB Robert Spillane
Written by Karver Jordan
On Monday afternoon the New England Patriots took the NFL world by storm by signing defensive tackle Milton Williams, defensive back Carlton Davis, and linebacker Robert Spillane.
Milton Williams was looked at as one of the best players in the 2025 Free Agency class and the New England Patriots sure did make sure to pay him, the former Philadelphia Eagle signed a four deal worth $26 Million per year. In 2024, Williams recorded 11 tackles and five sacks as well as 12.5 % pressure rate with the Philadelphia Eagles. The 25-year-old defensive tackle brings good size standing at 6-foot-3, 291 pounds. A good signing from the New England Patriots.
Carlton Davis, a former Detroit Lion defensive back, is joining a solid defensive back room in New England with Christian Gonzalez, Marcus Jones, and Alex Austin. Davis signed a three-year deal worth $60 million according to Tom Pelissero. The 28-year-old defensive back recorded 56 combined tackles, two interceptions, and 11 pass breakups in 2024 with Detroit. Overall, a great signing from Vrabel and the New England Patriots front office.
Robert Spillane, a 29-year-old linebacker from the Las Vegas Raiders signed with New England right at the beginning of free agency for a deal worth up to $37.5 over the span of three years. A beloved Raider leaves Las Vegas to join newly signed Linebacker Harold Landry in New England. In the 2024 season Spillane recorded 91 total tackles (sixth in the league), two interceptions and two sacks.
