Before the NFL offseason hits its full swing, NESN.com will be highlighting hidden Patriots: players on New England’s roster who have fallen under the radar for one reason or another. Next up: quarterback Jake Dolegala.
New England Patriots quarterback Jake Dolegala has been mentioned frequently this offseason for a player who spent last season on the practice squad and signed a future contract last month, but it’s always in the same context.
“The Patriots currently only have two quarterbacks signed for the 2021 season: Jarrett Stidham and Jake Dolegala.”
It is true that if the 2021 NFL season started today, Dolegala, a 2019 undrafted free agent out of Central Connecticut State University (they’re the less famous Blue Devils), would be top-two on the Patriots’ quarterback depth chart.
