The New England Patriots quarterback crew right now features four players without the name Tom Brady.
Jarrett Stidham and Brian Hoyer lead the pack, while undrafted J’Mar Smith and Brian Lewerke attempt to make the practice squad — or even the final roster. Smith was a winner at Louisiana Tech and brings value to the team on the ground. Lewerke out of Michigan State had better numbers on the ground and was the Spartans’ three-year starter.
Lewerke’s quarterback coach, Mike Giovando, explains what the Patriots are getting with him.
“I’m not disappointed that he’s a free agent and didn’t get drafted,” Giovando said.
