The New England Patriots are struggling significantly with their wide receiver corps, highlighted by DeMario Douglas ranking 73rd in the NFL with only 306 yards this season. Rookie Ja'Lynn Polk has disappointed with just 78 yards, while Javon Baker has yet to catch a pass. Off-field issues, including Polk's boastful claims and Osborn's trade wishes, further complicate matters.

Albert Breer suggests a lack of accountability and veteran presence is hurting the group, which is led by inexperienced receivers coach Tyler Hughes. With the NFL trade deadline approaching, the Patriots may need to consider adding experienced players to support rookie quarterback Drake Maye and improve their struggling offense.
