The New England Patriots are running low on receivers.
Entering Monday, expected contributors Julian Edelman, Brandon LaFell and Brandon Gibson have all been dealing with injuries throughout training camp, the preseason, or both. Even the receiving depth has been hobbled, with Aaron Dobson and Brian Tyms dealing with leg injuries. By the end of Monday, Gibson had been placed on injured reserve and Tyms was waived.
All of this led to reports over the weekend of New England bringing in Reggie Wayne for a visit and a physical.
