New England Patriots: Projecting team’s wide receiver depth chart
By Sam Minton
Practice squad
If everything goes right for the New England Patriots these group of guys won’t be seeing the field, but injuries and suspensions can change all of that.

One of the first players that comes to mind is Braxton Berrios. Berrios suffered an injury and missed the entire 2018 season. This has really set him back in the organization.
Going into the 2018 season it seemed like Berrios had a chance to make a name for himself with Julian Edelman suspended for the first 4 games of the regular season. Berrios was even getting compared to Edelman but he never got a chance to prove himself.
I think that the Patriots are headed in a new direction with there offense this season acquiring taller receivers that won’t be going over the middle. In 2019 Berrios will have to grind away on the practice squad. I also expect undrafted free agent wide receiver Jakobi Meyers to join him.
