Patriots Coordinator’s Praise Could Signal Breakout Season For Wideout

For as much talk there's been about the quarterbacks, the Patriots wide receiver corps hasn't received a lot of attention.

That's not due to them being a bad group. Outside of QB, New England's were one of the bright spots of the offseason with DeMario Douglas flashing his speed and rookies Ja'Lynn Polk and Javon Baker showing their potential to be regular-season contributors.

Tyquan Thornton frequently finds himself in practice highlight reels, but the third-year wide receiver dealt with injuries throughout his first two seasons with the Patriots. The 23-year-old was "monitoring" a soft tissue injury, but once again, he's been a standout at practice.
