The New England Patriots aren’t exactly desperate, but they are in need of some serious help. Their wide receiver depth chart has been dismantled by injury, suspension and retirement. Julian Edelman will miss the first four games for using performance-enhancing substances. Eric Decker just suddenly retired from the NFL, and free agent addition Jordan Matthews suffered a hamstring injury and was promptly released with an injury settlement.
Seeking some desperate help, the Patriots media has been looking for solutions to New England’s problem and two analysts have ended their searches in Detroit.
