brownerThe New England Patriots have until today to decide on starting cornerback Brandon Browner’s team option for the 2015 season, according to the Boston Herald.

If the Patriots exercise Browner’s option, he would count $4.8 million against the cap, but he would also earn a $2 million roster bonus tomorrow. If they decline the option, they would save $4.8 million against the cap without any dead money because Browner didn’t receive a signing bonus last year.
