The New England Patriots just lost a wide receiver (again), but the answer to the thinning room may already be on the roster. And it isn't AJ Brown.
Kyle Crabbs argues that the New England Patriots should lean heavily on their tight ends to address recent injuries across the roster. With wide receiver Romeo Doubs sidelined and heading to a reserve stint despite AJ Brown's return, Crabbs believes the tight end group can ease pressure on quarterback Drake Maye while compensating for a depleted receiver room.
The writer notes that relying on tight ends Hunter Henry and Eli Raridon also helps mitigate issues along an injured offensive line. Crabbs highlights Henry catching 12 of 14 targets over three weeks and suggests heavier two-tight-end sets can bolster line protection while keeping opposing defenses honest.
