New England Patriots rookie wide receiver Javon Baker has been cleared to practice, per coach Jerod Mayo.
The Boston Herald’s Andrew Callahan reported that Baker had been dealing with a thumb fracture, which kept him out of minicamp and some of the OTA practices. However, on Tuesday, Mayo indicated that the wideout was cleared ahead of training camp.
Baker, who was selected in the fourth round of the 2024 NFL draft, is looking to help reignite the Patriots’ offense. He was one of two wide receivers taken in the draft, with the other being Washington standout Ja’Lynn Polk.
