BREAKING – WR N’Keal Harry formally requests trade out of New England

Well, I certainly didn’t see this coming.

Actually, that’s a bit of a lie, I saw Harry potentially leaving this off-season, however, I didn’t see him and his agent requesting a formal trade from the team.

I actually saw Harry’s first-ever NFL touchdown in person at the game against Dallas in 2019, a rookie season in which he struggled through injuries and not grasping the trust of Tom Brady.

And really, the disappointment is visible in his career NFL stats..

Thought this was a likely move with him not really offering much recently, now all but confirmed that he won’t be on the roster by week 1 of the regular season.

Order of WRs drafted in 2019:

25: Marquise Brown
32: N'Keal Harry
36: Deebo Samuel
51: A.J. Brown
56: JJ Arcega-Whiteside
57: Mecole Hardman
59: Parris Campbell
62: Andy Isabella
64: DK Metcalf
66: Diontae Johnson
67: Jalen Hurd
76: Terry McLaurin

And if any fellow Patriots fans wanted more agony, just take a look at some of the players picked after Harry back in 2019.
