The New England Patriots’ wide receiver depth has been lacking all season. New England (2-4) came into the year with an inexperienced group looking to prove themselves, but the biggest positive was that Julian Edelman was still on the roster ready to show that he wasn’t just a product of Tom Brady’s offense.
However, following N’Keal Harry going down with a concussion in last week’s game against the 49ers, the injury news is getting worse at the position. Edelman was absent from the media portion of practice on Thursday before ESPN’s Adam Schefter reported that Edelman underwent knee surgery Thursday morning and will miss some game time, including the team’s Week 8 matchup against the Buffalo Bills (5-2).
