For those of you that were holding onto the possibility of landing free agent cornerback Darrelle Revis, no matter how implausible it seemed, forget about it.
According to ESPN, Revis and the New England Patriots have reached agreement on a one-year, $12 million deal. This will be Revis' third team in three years.
With the signing, the Patriots land the best free agent available this offseason after the Denver Broncos made headlines with their defensive acquisitions.
There were no reports that the San Francisco 49ers even made an attempt to acquire Revis in a trade or once he was released by the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

The San Francisco 49ers offense has cruised through three weeks, scoring 30 points in each of their first three contests, despite still having plenty of room for improvement.
As a result, the 49ers have the NFL's third-best scoring offense through three weeks, trailing just the Buffalo Bills and the Miami Dolphins, the latter having taken the league by storm with a 70-point performance last weekend.

With the extension, Shanahan is signed with the 49ers through at least the 2027 season, putting him in line to potentially break a major franchise record.
Currently, legendary coach Bill Walsh holds the franchise record for longest-tenured coach at 10 years, but Shanahan could break that, should he remain with the 49ers throughout the remainder of his newly-signed extension.
