Jonnu Smith thus far has not been the weapon the Patriots thought they were getting when they signed him to a lucrative free agent contract.
Smith enters Week 7 with just 16 catches for 124 yards and one touchdown. His blocking hasn’t been as advertised, and he’s made some crucial mistakes in big moments. Smith currently is the 64th-ranked tight end on Pro Football Focus, well below teammate Hunter Henry, who is ranked 18th.
During an appearance Thursday on WEEI’s “Merloni & Fauria”, Patriots great Rodney Harrison offered some advice for Smith.
