FOXBORO — Now that preseason is over and the New England Patriots have set their 53-man roster, we are on to the regular season. That means it's time to break down the final roster before New England's Week 1 opener against the Miami Dolphins.
One thing that stands out: The wide receiver room - which might be deeper than you think.
POSITION GROUP BREAKDOWN: RECEIVERS
Final roster locks: DeVante Parker, Jakobi Meyers, Nelson Agholor, Kendrick Bourne, Tyquan Thornton, Matthew Slater (special teams)
Traded: N’Keal Harry
Cut: Tre Nixon, Lil'Jordan Humphrey, Josh Hammond
MOST TO PROVE
DeVante Parker
The Patriots acquired Parker in a trade with Miami to shore up their wide receiver corps.
