Patriots Sign Robert Spillane
The New England Patriots signed former Las Vegas Raiders standout linebacker Robert Spillane to an undisclosed deal on Monday, sources told NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. Spillane heads to New England after leading the Raiders in tackles in each of the last two seasons while playing in all 17 regular-season games in both 2023 and 2024. The 29-year-old had 306 tackles (173 solo), 5.5 sacks, 17 tackles for loss, seven QB hits, five interceptions, 11 pass breakups, a forced fumble and a fumble recovery the last two years with the Raiders and will be a big addition to a Patriots defense that was in need of a playmaker like Spillane. The former undrafted free agent out of Western Michigan should continue to be an every-down player in new head coach Mike Vrabel's defense, putting him firmly in play in IDP fantasy formats at the linebacker position.
