It was a long time coming, but Mike Vrabel was finally reunited with AJ Brown.
On Monday, the Patriots sent multiple draft picks to the Eagles in exchange for Brown in a move that was heavily rumored for months, even dating back to when Vrabel was first hired by New England.

Vrabel was clearly please with the move and shared his reaction when speaking with the media on Tuesday.
“Just trying to improve our football team in every possible way. Give our offense multiple weapons to build on what we did last year,” Vrabel said according to NFL.com. “I think having experience with the person, to be able to add an accomplished NFL football player, receiver, premium player at his position, but somebody that we also feel strongly about as a person and a competitor and as a teammate.”
Vrabel drafted Brown when he was the head coach of the Tennessee Titans and the two have kept a strong relationship outside of football since.
The two will now look to reignite some of that success alongside quarterback Drake Maye, as the team looks to rebound from the Super Bowl loss from a season ago.
