Patriots Adding a WR, Expected to Sign JuJu Smith-Schuster

The New England Patriots lost their most productive receiver earlier on Tuesday when Jakobi Meyers decided to go to Las Vegas, leaving them in need of someone to hopefully pick up the slack.

It appears they’ve found their man.

According to the NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport, the Patriots are expected to sign Kansas City Chiefs free agent WR JuJu Smith-Schuster, which at least adds a productive player to a group that still has holes to fill.

Smith-Schuster, who hit free agency for the second-straight offseason, finished last season with 78 receptions for 933 yards and three touchdowns during his one season in Kansas City, which ultimately ended in a Super Bowl run for the former Steelers wideout.
