Defensive lineman Christian Wilkins is looking for his next team, and one day after the Las Vegas Raiders released the veteran, he is already gaining interest from another coach. New England Patriots coach Mike Vrabel said the team would discuss the possibility of adding Wilkins, who's relationship with the Raiders ended on a sour note.

Patriots coach Mike Vrabel said the Patriots will have a conversation about recently released defensive lineman Christian Wilkins.

“It takes some players a little longer than it takes others,” said head coach Mike Vrabel on Friday. “I would say that I’m hopeful that his best football is in front of him. I’m very excited about how he came in personality-wise and what he’s shown on the field thus far.”
