Do New England Patriots need a Wide Receiver?

The New England Patriots have had a horror start to their 21/22 NFL campaign so far. They are 2-3 from the first 5 matches and have left a lot to be desired. It is their offense that has been a hit or miss, mostly. While rookie quarterback Mac Jones has shown amazing spells of performances, his consistency still leaves a lot to be desired.

Heading into the season, if there was one position that looked like needing reinforcements, it was certainly the wide receiver position and the performances so far reflect that. While they have some decent depth possibilities, there isn’t a reliable go-to man for Mac Jones. So yes, New England Patriots need a wide receiver.
