Collins is in his fourth season with the Patriots, and is widely considered one of the most skilled linebackers in the NFL. While the return may seem less than substantial, Belichick’s track record indicates this was a well-though out decision.
Jamie Collins in last year of contract. Becomes prime candidate for Cleveland’s franchise tag – if Browns don’t sign him to big deal first.
