Just last week, the New England Patriots’ situation at the pass catching positions looked bleak: at one point during joint practices with the Tennessee Titans, quarterback Tom Brady had to play with a wide receiver group consisting of youngsters Jakobi Meyers, Braxton Berrios and Gunner Olszewski, and since-released veteran Dontrelle Inman. Needless to say that the group would not exactly strike fear in the hearts of defensive coordinators.
Fast forward just a couple of days and you will find a rebuilt receiver depth chart: Julian Edelman is back from the physically unable to perform list (PUP); Demaryius Thomas is back from the non-football injury list (NFI); Josh Gordon has been reinstated from his indefinite suspension; N’Keal Harry and Maurice Harris returned to practice after previously missing some time due to minor injuries.
