While the New England Patriots haven’t had much offensive success with QBs Mac Jones and Bailey Zappe, they do have a third quarterback on their active roster in undrafted rookie Malik Cunningham.
Cunningham has played just six snaps for New England this season, with two at quarterback and four at wide receiver. But the Patriots kept him active against the Los Angeles Chargers, and if they do so again, Pittsburgh Steelers head coach Mike Tomlin is worried about Cunningham’s ability as a runner. Cunningham ran for 3,182 yards and 50 touchdowns in five seasons at Louisville, and he also added 39 yards on six attempts while running in the preseason.
