The New England Patriots are looking at fierce competition in both the running back and wide receiver departments.
Jakobi Meyers, Kendrick Bourne, DeVante Parker, Tyquan Thornton and Tre Nixon are some of the top names competing for a roster spot at receiver. Damien Harris, Rhamondre Stevenson, James White and Pierre Strong Jr. are all strong candidates at the running back spot.
This group of talented players makes it difficult for the 29-year-old Ty Montgomery to find his place on the 53-man roster. Montgomery spent the last two seasons with the New Orleans Saints and he’s now on a two-year deal with the Patriots.
