From Brandon Aiyuk to Chris Godwin, the New England Patriots have done their due diligence on potentially available No. 1 wide receivers in recent years. The team's ability to sign Stefon Diggs and his being able to practice without having visible restrictions throughout training camp, just 10 months after a torn ACL, is a small miracle.
With camp now rounding to a close, the Patriots are widely considered to have five roster locks at WR, with Diggs leading a group that will feature Kayshon Boutte, DeMario Douglas, Mack Hollins, and rookie Kyle Williams. From there, 2024 fourth-rounder Javon Baker is battling for a roster spot along with fan-favorite Efton Chism III.
