When can N'Keal Harry practice?

Now that he's practicing, here's hoping he gets up to speed and shows an ability to be at least an impactful WR3/Wr4 before the year's out.
 
we know he has 1st round wide receiver talent. He flashed it in pre-season and at times in training camp.

Hopefully he has the mental aspect down because thats really all it takes to get bradys trust. Malcolm Mitchell wasnt the "greatest" wide receiver. But he knew where brady wanted him to be and caught the ball when thrown to him which gained bradys trust. Jakobi Myers seems to be getting there.

If he can be where he is supposed to. Supposedly according to Dorsett they have been pushing him in the "virtual room" and in meetings while he has been on IR so hopefully mentally he is up to speed.
 
He will be activated on Saturday. This offense will be very different to what the Jets are practising for.
edit, forgot about IR rules there.

Harry ? He can't be activated until the Ravens game.

Well the NFL would be shocked as well...
 
Yeah, if he performs anything like Malcolm Mitchell in 2016 that would be fantastic.
I think we tend to get a bit carried away when discussing Malcolm Mitchell’s season here. Since Harry will be missing the first 8 games, let’s look at Mitchell’s first 8 games for comparison:

8 games, 7 catches

It’s funny that so many choose to act as if Aaron Dobson was terrible, yet Malcolm Mitchell was great. The truth is that Dobson had a more consistent and productive rookie campaign than Mitchell, though we remember Mitchell for the handful of catches that he made during the comeback in the SB, which we will continue to use as a measuring stick for all rookie WRs.

If we cut both of their rookie seasons in half, we’re left with hoping that Harry will produce around 15-18 receptions this year, numbers that appear to be reasonable.

Yeah, Mitchell was a non-factor until the SF game where he caught that TD but then also remained pretty up/down through the regular season. He made some big catches in the postseason though which is what most people remember of him.

That's because Dobson had like..no other WRs to compete with. Edelman was just coming into his game replacing Welker. Brady really had no choice but to get him involved. In 2016 it was a much more refined Edelman, Amendola, Hogan pre suckage, plus Gronk and Marty and White. They're not really similar situations

According to pro football reference, Mitchell started in 6 games that year due to the injury situations of other WRs.

In those 6 games:

2 catches for 33 yards
2 catches for 7 yards
4 catches for 98 yards *
8 catches for 82 yards *
1 catch for 14 yards
3 catches for 29 yards

*Two of three of his best games, the other being the SB comeback (6 catches for 70 yards).

In 4/6 starts, he had 33 yards or less. The legend of Malcolm Mitchell has grown due to coming up big in the comeback, particularly on one drive where he had a few clutch catches.
