There hasn’t been much news following former Alabama receiver Slade Bolden’s workout with the New England Patriots last week. But no news doesn’t necessarily mean bad news, according to ESPN’s Mike Reiss.
The Patriots could be turning the clock back to the days when the offense leaned on slot receivers with good area quickness and a knack for finding the soft spots in coverage. Bolden fits the prototypical receiver that has thrived in past Patriots’ offenses, and he has a genuine connection with quarterback Mac Jones, who was his college teammate at Alabama.
