Butler was a restricted free agent this offseason and drew interest from the New Orleans Saints, who hosted him on a visit. But the Saints elected not to sign Butler to an offer sheet, in which they would have had to surrender a first-round draft choice (No. 11 overall) had New England not matched it.
After Butler signed his $3.91 million tender, New England and New Orleans discussed a trade, but they ultimately didn't strike a deal. The Saints drafted Ohio State cornerback Marshon Lattimore with their No. 11 overall pick.
Butler is scheduled for unrestricted free agency after the 2017 season. His presence at voluntary offseason workouts comes in the week that the Patriots have entered the second phase of work, which includes coaches being allowed to work with players on the field for the first time.
Butler is projected to start alongside Gilmore, giving the Patriots one of the NFL's best 1-2 cornerback duos. Butler played 96.7 percent of the defensive snaps in 2016, and had played 98.8 percent of the defensive snaps in 2015 when he was voted to the Pro Bowl.

In an interview with ESPN.com, the 39-year-old Brady said he might play into his late 40s, never mind his mid-40s, and there really will be nobody left for him to topple the next six, seven, eight seasons but Michael Jeffrey Jordan -- the presumed greatest American team-sport athlete ever. Brady has a better chance than LeBron James of seizing that crown. He holds a 5-3 lead over James in titles, and the New England Patriots won't have to face the Golden State Warriors over the balance of Brady's prime.
"I was in awe of Michael Jordan," Brady said, "and I still am in awe of what he was and what he meant. ... He was such an effortless player. He put a lot of effort in, but there's an art and a beauty to the way he played the game. That was a very inspiring thing."
Tom Brady is conquering age. His next target: Michael Jordan
Brady's going for SIX :PatsCelebration:
