Report: Patriots want Dan Connolly back, four others interested

The Patriots want to re-sign offensive lineman Dan Connolly, but the Seahawks, Bears, Buccaneers and Dolphins all have interest in the free agent, NFL.com reports.

Connolly rated 72nd out of 78 guards in 2014, per Pro Football Focus, but has served as a starter on the New England offensive line for the last six seasons. He would likely line up at center in Seattle or Chicago and at guard with the Buccaneers or Dolphins.
