As you probably already know, the Patriots recently worked out veteran wide receiver Eric Decker. This could be nothing more than just a “we’re just seeing if there is anything there” kind of thing, and it could ultimately amount to nothing.
But let’s say for the sake of discussion that Bill Belichick decides to go ahead and sign Decker to what would probably be a one-year contract (maybe two at the most), it would be a pretty New England Patriot kind of signing, considering the current status of Julian Edelman. Due to the four-game suspension that stemmed from that bizarre violation of the PED policy that Edelman somehow found himself tangled up in, it wouldn’t be bad to have a guy like Decker on the roster catching bullets and rainbows from Tom Brady, no?
