Two weeks in the preseason, no player on the New England Patriots’ roster has caught more passes than Lil’Jordan Humphrey. After grabbing six passes against the New York Giants last week, he added five more versus the Carolina Panthers on Friday night.
In total, he took those receptions for 133 yards — second behind Tre Nixon’s 137 — as well as one team-lead-tying touchdown. Humphrey’s production and ability to contribute on both offense and special teams can best be described as promising, and at the very least will force the Patriots to make some tough decision come the roster cutdown deadline.
