FOXBORO, Mass. — JuJu Smith-Schuster understands there’s more competition in the New England Patriots receiver room this spring, especially with draftees Ja’Lynn Polk and Javon Baker.
But Smith-Schuster is thrilled about New England’s additions.
“Exciting, man,” Smith-Schuster said after Day 1 of OTAs at Gillette Stadium on Monday. “For me, I’ve been in multiple rooms where they draft receivers and it just kind of makes me better as a player on the field. And being able to have some young guys come in and help this offense, it helps out a lot.
“I think what it’s going to do is everyone’s level is just going to kick it up a notch.
