New England Patriots receiver N’Keal Harry may finally get that trade that he demanded last offseason, according to ESPN’s Jeremy Fowler. One of the many obvious takeaways from the Patriots’ decision to trade for receiver DeVante Parker was that he was likely to render Harry obsolete.
Harry, a former first-round pick, was supposed to develop into a player like Parker, a big, contested-catch receiver. Parker is sure to help quarterback Mac Jones expand his range when passing downfield. Harry did not. So the Patriots will explore the trade market — and potentially elect to release Harry — depending upon what happens in the NFL draft, per Fowler.
Devante Parker trade puts N'Keal Harry's future into focus — as @MikeReiss wrote, this is likely end of road for him in N.E.
I was told Harry, as of now, has not received indication he'll be released. But draft could dictate movement on release or trade https://t.co/DBM5RhCiRS
