FOXBOROUGH, Mass. -- In one respect, the New England Patriots should be commended for their persistence when it comes to their wide receiver personnel. They’ve made a lot of moves in 2018 to try to get it right.
Yet in another respect, the present snapshot reflects a less-than-ideal situation because most of their decisions -- not including trading Brandin Cooks after Danny Amendola signed as a free agent with the Dolphins -- haven’t panned out. Since the first week of training camp in late July, Bill Belichick & Co. have made 20 different transactions at the position.
