Well, I don't even know how many we have now, but one less WR.

Gonzalez didn't make it to TC.

Gonzalez didn't make it to TC.
Maybe he made two mistakes at the OTA's and had to run two laps

Been a fan thru the good times and the bad.
I will never be confused with a "fair weather" fan.

Wasn't at OTAs. Probably wasn't healthy.

Doing my part to turn this into a 300 post wide receiver thread:

his days were numbered when they signed Gaffney. I'm sure they would have let them battle it out in TC had Gonzales shown he could be healthy enough to practice.

They had enough depth at WR to hold a spot open for a guy that is hurt. They will probably bring someone else in.

Did the Patriots release Gonzalez, because that's how the thread title reads.

I can't tell if you're stating an opinion or fact.



Edit, just saw the other thread where he was released.

Damn, I actually had high hopes for him for some unknown reason. Oh well...

As long as we're speculating, it's also a possibility that the Patriots have reached an agreement with another player, and somebody had to be released in order to make room for him.

Yeah, they just signed Dennard plus two others. Really needed TE and interior OL bodies.

So it's down to 8 fighting for 3-4 spots, imo, as I've got Welker/Lloyd/"Slater" as roster locks with the WR tag.
