Report: Giants to sign Solder

Share

It's another big free agency loss for the Patriots. Left tackle Nate Solder will with the New York Giants, NFL Network's Ian Rapoport reports.

ESPN's Adam Schefter reports that it's a four-year, $60 million deal, making Solder the highest-paid left tackle in the NFL.  

According to NBC Sports Boston Patriots insider Tom E. Curran, the Patriots made what they described as a "solid" offer to Solder a week ago.

With Solder's departure, protecting 41-year-old Tom Brady's blindside at left tackle obviously becomes a major need for the Patriots, who could end up moving Marcus Cannon over from right tackle after he missed most of last season. 

More to come.
