The New England Patriots hosted wide receiver Kaden Davis for a tryout on Sunday, per ESPN’s Mike Reiss.
Davis was most recently waived by the Denver Broncos on August 16. The Southwest Missouri State product caught 44 passes for 700 yards and 10 touchdowns in 2021, becoming a complementary producer for their offense.
Davis is known for his speed. He runs a 4.47 40-yard dash, which could help him catch on for another team at the next level.
New England is in the market for wide receivers right now. They need as much depth as possible at the position, with the injury to Tyquan Thornton. At the very least, they are checking out the wide receiver market, and Davis is someone that could fit what the Patriots are trying to do offensively.
The Patriots had WR Kaden Davis (Northwest Missouri State) in for a tryout.

It will be interesting to see if he catches on in the wide receiver room. He could be a piece, as New England looks to fill the void left by Thornton’s injury.
