If there’s one player who makes the most sense for the New England Patriots, it might just be receiver Slade Bolden. His story is eerily familiar to a number of players who have had success with the Patriots.
Bolden went to Alabama, where he played in the slot under former Patriots and current Crimson Tide offensive coordinator Bill O’Brien. In that offense, Bolden both caught and threw for touchdowns. He even roomed with former Alabama and current Patriots quarterback Mac Jones. Yes, of course, Bolden contributed on special teams in coverage and returns.
