Malik Cunningham’s list of supporters continues to grow after his impressive debut on Thursday night.
Speaking after Sunday’s practice in Foxborough, Patriots wide receiver JuJu Smith-Schuster offered up praise for New England’s rookie quarterback/wide receiver.
“That dude is electric,” Smith-Schuster said of Cunningham. “When the football’s in his hands as a quarterback, he’s a very dangerous player, as you could see this past Thursday night. But he’s a guy who’s been doing it in college, so I guess it’s second nature to him to do that.”
A quarterback by trade, Cunningham entered New England’s training camp trying to carve out a role as a wide receiver.
