Resetting the Patriots Wide Receiver Depth

With season-ending injuries to Gibson/Tyms health concerns still plague unit

The Patriots wide receiver corps lost two players to season-ending injuries this week. Both Brandon Gibson and Brian Tyms were placed on IR, now health concerns to Julian Edelman,Aaron Dobson and Brandon LaFell will be of major concern with the season just around the corner.

Edelman tweaked an ankle in early August and has just returned to the practice field. Dobson has also been injured since early August after a fast start to training camp with a lingering hamstring issue. LaFell hasn’t practiced at all this spring or at training camp, suffering from a foot injury which resulted to his being placed on PUP.
