It doesn’t mean the Romans brought it there.

Could have been brought by Vikings.

There's been speculation that besides the Vikings, with well establish forays into eastern North America, that Irish and Portuguese seamen also got to North America. I wonder if at some point DNA will settle the speculation that those who remained joined native tribes.

Vikings were the ones who had knowledge of big open water.
