Missed a lot of time and needs to show he’s ready

Keshawn Martin will be one of the key players to watch this Friday when the Patriots take on the Carolina Panthers in Charlotte on Friday night.

With the cuts in the 90-man roster (Patriots are already down to 81), looming to 75 next week, the Patriots still have an on-going and intriguing battle for the fifth wide receiver position. The team has Julian Edelman, Chris Hogan and rookie Malcolm Mitchell as roster locks. Danny Amendola seems close to returning from the PUP so he’d be #4.
