Despite reports that Kellen Winslow’s chronic knee pain may have been why he asked for his release from the Patriots on Thursday, the tight end says he’s looking forward to continuing his NFL career.

“I’m lookin forward to my next opportunity in the NFL and continuing to play the game I Love!,” he wrote on twitter.

Winslow reportedly asked for his released and the Patriots granted his request prior to Thursday’s practice.

Winslow made just over $48,000 and logged four offensive snaps with one reception in his only game with the team Sunday night at Baltimore.
