Is Trading for Robby Anderson the Answer to the Patriots’ Need at Wide Receiver?

Anderson’s arrival would likely precipitate the end of Nelson Agholor’s tenure in New England.

With the official start of the 2022 NFL season just days away, the equivalent of the league’s ‘hot stove’ rumor mill is churning in full effect. In addition to various free agent rumors, trades are also the hot topic of conversation. Recently, the New England Patriots have found themselves front and center with regard to some potential high profile acquisitions, especially at the wide receiver position.

It is clear that the Patriots are in need of help at wide receiver. While recent rumors have connected them to players such as Atlanta’s Calvin Ridley, Arizona’s Andy Isabella and Dallas’ Amari Cooper, a former AFC East-rival may be in the mix to play his football in Foxboro during the 2022 season.
