The New England Patriots will see some changes to their active roster for Sunday's game against the New York Jets with Ja'Lynn Polk ruled out due to a concussion. On Friday, Patriots head coach Jerod Mayo hinted at Tyquan Thornton making his return to the field after two weeks inactive. "Tyquan has done a good job in practice.
Looking forward to seeing him in a game,” Mayo said. “He will be at the game. He’s had a great week of practice, and he’ll be there, and hopefully it translates.
” The 2022 second-round pick has been a bust so far through his first 27 games in the NFL, catching just 37 passes for 365 yards and two touchdowns. This season, he has two receptions for just 27 yards in five contests. Thornton possesses big play ability with his blazing speed that allowed him to run a 4.
28 40-yard dash at the NFL combine. However, considering the fact he's been unable to do much of anything even when he's healthy, it's hard to imagine he'll finally do something this weekend. If anything, New England hopes that playing with a quarterback with a big arm will unlock Thornton as a weapon.
