Mankins' agent then went onto to say that, "Early this morning, Logan spoke with (coach) Bill (Belichick) and both are very happy, happy to get started. Logan is looking forward to being with his teammates and coaches, with a fresh start," according to ESPN Boston.Ā
The one-year contract will pay Mankins a whopping $10.1 million after only raking in $1.54 million last season due to his contract dilemma and decision to holdout.Ā
As Mankins' agrees to the deal, only one can assume that Bill Belichick and the Patriots will likely engage in talks with Mankins and his agentĀ regardingĀ a potential long-term contract extension, as Mankins is arguably one of the best guards in the league.
