It goes without saying that the New England Patriots could prove to benefit from completely overhauling their wide receiving corps, which was one of the weakest in the league for the second consecutive season in 2020.
Outside of former undrafted talent Jakobi Meyers, who led the team in receptions (59), receiving yards (729) and yards per target (9.0), no other wideout logged more than 50 catches or 605 receiving yards.
That’s admittedly a huge indictment on quarterback Cam Newton, but everybody knows that his pass catchers didn’t offer him much support.
