What are preseason stats good for? Absolutely everything.
I’m enamored with the New England Patriots’ rookie class and wanted to see where fourth round quarterback Jarrett Stidham and undrafted wide receiver Jakobi Meyers stacked up against other players from past preseasons. So, naturally, I’ve compiled all of the offensive stats from the Patriots’ preseasons under head coach Bill Belichick.
Through two preseason games, the Patriots’ fourth round pick has looked exceptional. He hasn’t been perfect by any means, but for every dropped interception by the defender, Stidham has watched receivers drop touchdown passes.
