Coming into 2018, the New England Patriots have a very interesting looking depth chart at wide receiver. This offseason, we saw the Patriots lose Danny Amendola in free agency and trade away Brandin Cooks.
As two of their top receivers from last season, replacing their production will not be easy. Unfortunately for New England, they have also been hit rather hard with injuries at wide receiver so far.
Just recently, the Patriots have released both Jordan Matthews and Malcolm Mitchell due to injuries. Both are certainly talented players, but injuries appear to be the main reason why they were both released.
