FOXBORO, Mass. — When the Patriots host the Bears on Monday, Jakobi Meyers and N’Keal Harry will see each other in a reunion loaded with context.
Both receivers arrived in New England in 2019 –Meyers as an undrafted free agent; Harry as a first-round pick — looking to earn roles on the Tom Brady-led offense. However, few people are aware of how Meyers found motivation in the Patriots’ drafting of Harry.
“I’m going to go in there and show them I could play with a first-rounder,” Meyers said last year during a conversation with former teammate Kyle Van Noy.
