Jakobi Meyers admits he wanted to stay in New England

Jakobi Meyers is glad to be starting a new chapter in his NFL career with the Las Vegas Raiders, but that doesn’t mean he didn’t wish things turned out differently with the New England Patriots.

It was with the Patriots that the former undrafted rookie out of NC State scratched and clawed his way to becoming one of the better slot wide receivers in the league. He went from being a training camp hopeful to the best receiver on the entire football team.

Through that journey, he built a strong bond with players, coaches, fans and various staff members throughout the entire Patriots organization.
