New England Patriots: 3 players who will miss Tom Brady most

3. James White

Brady and James White have built quite the chemistry over the years. White has become a crucial part of New England’s offense.

Even though he is a running back White became one of Brady’s favorite targets in the passing game. In 2019, White had 72 catches for 645 yards and 5 touchdowns. A lot of receivers would aspire for those numbers.

Now that Brady is gone it will be interesting to see how White is used. There is a chance that we see him used more in the running game.

Still, if White is used in the passing game his numbers could take a hit without Brady. Whoever is the new Qb will have to build chemistry with him right away.

So the Patriots offseason sure has been interesting and that was before they decided to sign Newton. This season seems to be filled with question marks and that can be interesting but also disheartening.
