Vince Wilfork will officially join the growing free agency group. Big Vince was owed a 4 million dollar roster bonus due on March 10th. As expected, New England was unwilling to do so. The Patriots create $8.06 million in salary-cap space with the release. Wilfork is one of the rare NFL players who is his own agent. That being said Wilfork will not be able to sign a free agent deal until 3 days after the start of the league calendar year. Wilfork took to twitter to thank the great fans of New England.
