On the list of adjectives that can be used to describe Jakobi Meyers, “tough” should be near the top.
The Patriots receiver battled through multiple injuries this season, eventually finishing with 67 catches for 804 yards and six touchdowns. In a season loaded with dramatic lows for New England’s offense, Meyers yet again was a shining bright spot. And now we know a bit more about what he dealt with in 2022.
During the Week 2 road win over the Pittsburgh Steelers, Meyers suffered a knee injury that forced him to miss the next two games. He returned in Week 5 and missed just one game the rest of the way (concussion) although he clearly was bothered by a shoulder injury toward the end of the campaign.
