PATRIOTS NEWS Patriots activate WR N'Keal Harry off IR

[NG Pats Fan]

"Metcalf was everywhere Sunday, chipping in with a two-point conversion, a 53-yard touchdown dash that made Jamel Dean (4.30 forty time) look like he was moving in quicksand and countless other highlights that wouldn't fit in this moderately-sized blurb (our CMS has a strict character limit). Metcalf, a Greek god who left Athens to pursue a football career, was at his best when the stakes were highest, coming through with one clutch catch after another in the fourth quarter and overtime. He helped facilitate the game-winning touchdown with a sprawling 29-yard grab to set up first-and-goal with 6:55 remaining in overtime. Now the leading receiver among rookies with 525 yards, the second-rounder could wind up as the steal of the 2019 Draft. Metcalf will take his act on the road in Week 10, where the undefeated Niners will await his presence on Monday Night Football."

More evidence of my earlier claim that Brady doesn't particularly like rookie WRs in general, but especially the guys on this year's team.

Really don't understand why he'd embrace AB, Gordon, and now Sanu with open arms, but hardly give the time of day to the rookies.

I'm sure they're working just as hard as anyone else, and want to succeed just as much.

Do you honestly believe this isn't performance related? Brady is the ultimate win 1st guy. If these guys could actually beat the guys ahead of them they would be playing.

No better sign than Pats giving a 2nd for Sanu.

****ing AB - he could've been fun in this O

Brady has ZERO patience with developing young Wrs. If Harry is struggling, Brady will blacklist him and move on.

Brady was speaking about his excitement for the aforementioned veterans after 1 or 2 practices, which I suspect is hardly enough of a sample size for him to accurately gauge performance.

That said, if Harry has been bad at practice and that's why Brady is freezing him out when chatting with the media, that's very concerning.
