Malcolm Butler

CB Malcom Butler was placed on injured reserve Monday, ending his season.

Fantasy Impact

Butler signed a two-year $5M deal with New England in the offseason, with a potential out before the 2023 season. The 32-year-old veteran was set to potentially start at CB for a Patriots team that is suddenly in need of some additional depth in the secondary. There was no immediate report of what the injury is, but we can expect to see him rehab and be back competing for a spot next season.

Butler will be back in New England after spending one year out of football and three in Tennessee. The franchise where he got his start is welcoming the veteran back in open arms and he should be a solid contributor for them.
