The Patriots have now added some competition to the mix - putting pressure on the sophomore to indeed show some progress heading into 2024. Signing Slye allows New England to cover its bases should he not do that.
Experience does not equal success, though. Slye has more of the former than the latter, but that alone might help give him a leg up over Ryland when all is said and done.
Statistically, Slye has been better than Ryland when comparing their respective NFL careers: the newest Patriot has made 82.3 percent of his field goal tries (121 of 147) as well as 88.5 percent of PATs (138 of 156). Slye also has experience on kickoffs.
