"Patriots Trade Kicker Nick Folk to Titans, Betting on Chad Ryland"
The New England Patriots have traded kicker Nick Folk to the Tennessee Titans in exchange for a 2025 seventh-round draft pick. The Patriots drafted Chad Ryland in the fourth round of the 2023 NFL Draft as a potential replacement for Folk, who has been consistent but lacks strong leg power. The Titans, who have been searching for a long-term kicking solution, see Folk as a short-term fix with better leg strength than their previous kicker. Folk spent four seasons with the Patriots, making 86.5 percent of his field goal attempts in 2022.
