Malik Cunningham never threw a regular-season pass for the Patriots, and that’s a shame

COMMENTARY

Last month, I asked Patriots great Kevin Faulk if he had any advice for Malik Cunningham.

Mac Jones was struggling, and Bailey Zappe was being used only in case of emergency. And yet Cunningham, who flashed potential during the preseason, had only appeared in one game against the Raiders.

“Be patient,” Faulk advised Cunningham. “If it ain’t here, it’s going to be somewhere else. If you trust in God, it’s going to be somewhere. Business, you know?”

Faulk’s words rang true. Baltimore signed Cunningham to it’s 53-man roster this week.
