Barmore signed a four-year deal worth $92 million that runs through 2028. He lacks guaranteed money in 2027 and 2028, and 10 million of his $12 million salary for next season locks in. On March 13th, that structure gives the Patriots flexibility if they want to move on. After a breakout year in 2023, with 8.5 sacks and 64 tackles, Barmore dealt with major setbacks. He missed most of 2024 due to blood clots, then bounced back for a full season in 2025,

He's also facing a misdemeanor charge for domestic assault, involving a family member, adding to the off-field concerns. Fans and analysts worry this could push the team toward a split, especially with cap space needs after other moves like releasing Stefan Digs. Some insiders remain optimistic, expecting Barmore to stay and less something changes.
