Wilfork decision likely means Patriots will bring back Revis

Will the likely end of the Vince Wilfork-New England Patriots marriage bode well for the return of Darrelle Revis and Devin McCourty to New England?

Not picking up Wilfork's option gives the Patriots a projected salary cap savings of $8.9 million. CSNNE.com Patriots Insider Tom E. Curran says that money could help retain their pending free agents in the secondary, who were a big part of their Super Bowl-winning season.

As for those negotiations, Curran says there's "still not much on the Devin McCourty front and I would atrribute that to the Darrelle Revis negotiations."

Added Curran, "I've been told that Darrelle Revis loves being a Patriot, and this is where he would like to end up...McCourty and Revis are that much closer, at least to the public and the media, to being re-signed."
