Former Ravens player Matt Judon is coming to Foxborough on a four-year, $56 million deal, including $32 million guaranteed in the first two years, according to CBS Sports NFL Insider Jason La Canfora. Smith, arguably the top player at his position on the open market, agreed to terms on a four-year, $50 million deal, according to ESPN’s Adam Schefter, while Godchaux gets a two-year, $16 million deal. Mills also inked a two-year, $16 million deal, per Schefter.
Judon was considered one of the top outside linebackers in free agency, and is coming off of his second consecutive Pro Bowl season. Last offseason, the Ravens placed the franchise tag on Judon, and now, he has capitalized on the open market. In 2020, he recorded 50 combined tackles, six sacks and two passes defensed in 14 games played. In Baltimore’s two postseason games, Judon recorded six combined tackles, one sack and forced a fumble.

The #Patriots may not be done: They are making a major push to sign #Ravens pass-rusher Matt Judon, per me and @MikeGarafolo. Big move on D.
