NFL Network’s Adam Schefter is reporting that New England Patriots are close to a deal with Randy Moss that would make him one of the league’s highest paid receivers.

A report by the NFL Network’s Adam Schefter intimated the Pats were “close” to re-signing the wide receiver, and had a “standing multi-year offer to make him one of the highest-paid receivers in the NFL.” Schefter essentially made his case based on what he feels about the negotiation, saying, “It’s not that they’re getting close, I think they’ve always been close.”
