Insider Drops Massive Intel on Patriots' Potential WR Trade

The New England Patriots may need even more wide receiver help after it was recently revealed that Stefon Diggs may begin the regular season on the PUP list, meaning he would not be eligible to make his Patriots debut until Week 5.

New England had the worst receiving corps in football last year, so the Pats' offense probably won't be able survive four weeks without Diggs if no one else steps up. And let's be honest: the Patriots' receiver room is very thin on genuine talent.

As a result, New England may pursue a trade, and Albert Breer of Sports Illustrated feels that the Pats could make a strong play for Washington Commanders star Terry McLaurin if he becomes available.
