3-TD Wide Receiver Named As Patriots Top Cut Candidate Ahead Of OTAS
The New England Patriots are considering roster changes ahead of OTAs, with wide receiver DeMario Douglas identified as a potential cut candidate. This speculation arises as the team may acquire A.J. Brown from the Philadelphia Eagles, which would create a crowded receiver room. Douglas, who had a strong performance last season, could be at risk of being released if the team adds more talent to the position.
- ▪DeMario Douglas led the Patriots with 561 receiving yards in 2023.
- ▪He tied for the team lead with 66 receptions alongside tight end Hunter Henry.
- ▪The potential acquisition of A.J. Brown could make Douglas expendable in a crowded receiver lineup.
