The Great Ben Watson

The Pats will probably go big when it comes to finding tight ends in the draft or free agency. They only have Ryan Izzo and Matt LaCosee after the expected retirement of Ben Watson.

The former first round pick of the Pats in the 2004 draft got everything he could from his career. Although he never won a Super Bowl, he was on the 2007 team which came within one elusive victory of a perfect season.

He left to joint the Saints in 2008 and another stint with the Ravens before signing with the Pats in 2019 with a hope of one last chance for a ring.

He had numerous injuries, but leaves the game with 547 receptions for 6,058 yards and 44 TD's.
