Jeremiah Pharms Jr. quietly becoming a contributor along a deep Patriots defensive line

The New England Patriots interior defensive line may lack household names or perennial Pro Bowlers, but that does not mean in lacks quality as well. Quite the opposite is the case, in fact.

Christian Barmore has developed into one of the most disruptive defenders in the NFL; Davon Godchaux is as good a space-eater as there is; Deatrich Wise Jr. and Lawerence Guy Jr. offer a mix of leadership and steady production; second-round rookie Keion White has had flashes of brilliance this season. But while those five — rightfully so — get most of the headlines (and playing time), they are not the only Patriots D-linemen worth talking about.
