Patriots release recently acquired wide receiver Amara Darbo

again When the dust that was the NFL’s cutdown day had settled Byron Cowart Jersey Boys , the New England Patriots were left with only three pure wide receiver under contract. As a result, the team put two waiver claims on recently released players at the position – and were able to get them both onto their 53-man roster: former New York Jets wideout Chad Hansen was claimed, as was former Seattle Seahawks receiver Amara Darboh.Both were projected to serve as depth pieces alongside Chris Hogan, Phillip Dorsett and Cordarrelle Patterson at least until Julian Edelman returned from his four-game suspension. However, it looks as if only Hansen will do that: according to ESPN’s Field Yates White Duke Dawson Jerseys , New England has decided to part ways with Darboh again.NFL Network’s Mike Garofolo added some more information shortly afterwards:Given Garofolo’s report, it would not be a surprise if the Patriots opted to waive Darboh with an injury designation. If that were to be the case, the 2017 third-round draft pick would revert to New England’s injured reserve list in case he cleared waivers. At that point in time, however, that is all just speculation. What we know is this: Darboh’s stint with the Patriots comes to and end after only a few days.With Darboh gone Duke Dawson Jerseys 2019 , the Patriots could look to add another wide receiver. They currently have the aforementioned quartet on their active team as well as two more pass catchers on the practice squad in Riley McCarron and Jace Billingsley – the latter is not yet officially signed, though. In the AFC Championship Game one week ago, New England Patriots tight end Rob Gronkowski looked like his old dominant self as a pass catcher again. The 29-year old was quick into his routes, physical at attacking the football when in the air, and targeted more often than any other member of the team’s offense. All in all White Danny Etling Jerseys , he finished the game against the Kansas City Chiefs with six catches on eleven targets for a combined 79 yards.But despite seemingly trending in the right direction, Gronkowski’s future remains in doubt and there appears to be a chance that he calls it a career after this season. If that is indeed the case, the Patriots would need another player in his mold: a pass catching tight end that could also be used as a blocker, something Gronkowski excels in. Enter Iowa’s Noah Fant, a potential first-round pick this year.According to the latest mock draft by SB Nation’s Dan Kadar Danny Etling Jerseys 2019 , he will be just that — because of the Patriots:As Kadar notes, Fant needs to work on his blocking and ability to move people at the point of attack. Other than that, however, he is a high-upside option at tight end and arguably the best prospect at his position. Fant’s abilities as a pass catcher are the main reason for that — as he displayed consistently during his 2018 junior year: appearing in all 12 of his team’s games, he caught 39 passes for 518 yards and seven touchdowns.“Fant is a nightmare in space and will excel in a vertical passing offense that can implement him in the middle of the field White Derek Rivers Jerseys ,” writes Draft Network senior analyst Kyle Crabbs about the first-team All-Big Ten selection. “With soft hands and elite athletic ability, Fant should be a volume target at the NFL level and will have an impact fairly early into his pro career.”A versatile route runner and explosive player with the football in his hands, Fant would be a nice addition to a New England offense that lacks big play ability in 2018. And even if Gronkowski returns next year, investing in a player like Fant — a flex tight end that will add more pure talent to the Patriots’ receiving corps — would be a sound decision as a long-term investment with potential short-term payoff as well.
