Brandon LaFell's Quick Recovery Is Best-Case Scenario for Patriots Offense

With New England Patriots wide receiver Brandon LaFell missing from practice during the spring, one had to wonder how the Patriots offense would look at the start of the season.

Thanks to a quick recovery from whatever was ailing him, now we don't have to wonder.

LaFell was seen in a walking boot at a charity event shortly after the Patriots broke organized team activities and before they began minicamp. His absence led to increased snaps for wide receivers Brian Tyms and Aaron Dobson at practices.

Both men had bright moments during camp, as they have in their respective NFL careers, but in a best-case scenario, neither one would be the go-to option on the perimeter at wide receiver.
