The New England Patriots are signing former Cleveland Browns linebacker Sione Takitaki to an undisclosed deal on Monday, according to a source. Takitaki stands at 6-foot-1 and 238 pounds and is entering his sixth season in the NFL after the Browns took him in the third round in 2019 out of BYU. The 28-year-old linebacker is very well-rounded and was breaking out in 2022 in 12 games before tearing his ACL late in the year. He came back to record 65 tackles (45 solo), a career-high two sacks, and an interception in 15 regular-season games (seven starts) for Cleveland a year ago. Takitaki could have a significant role with the Patriots in 2024, but fantasy managers shouldn't look to him in IDP formats.
