There’s a chance the New England Patriots could be looking at adding a receiver in the 2023 NFL draft, and it could end up being a player that already has deep connections with the team.
Cincinnati prospect Tyler Scott, who is considered one of the top-10 best available players at his position, was originally recruited to Rutgers by Patriots assistant wide receivers coach Ross Douglas. When speaking with media members at the NFL Scouting Combine on Friday, Scott claimed he received a text from the Patriots.
“[The Patriots] actually texted me,” said Scott, via NESN’s Zack Cox.
