Malik Cunningham is one of the Patriots’ most intriguing developmental players. The former Louisville quarterback has practiced both as a quarterback and wide receiver during his short time in New England.
According to The Athletic’s Jeff Howe, Bill Belichick and the Patriots could utilize Cunningham in even more interesting ways this Sunday against the Las Vegas Raiders.
New England’s practice squad elevations will be finalized on Saturday, and it seems Cunningham may be promoted to the active roster. Howe reports that the undrafted free agent has been a part of the Patriots’ game plan this week.
