Tyquan Thornton

The Boston Herald’s Doug Kyed believes WR Tyquan Thornton is emerging as part of the Patriots’ “top unit.”

Demario Douglas and Ja’Lynn Polk are the other two receivers running with the top unit. This report understandably has some caveats. Kyed noted that K.J. Osborn will still be in the mix and Kendrick Bourne will likely be a starter once he comes off the PUP list. Still, it’s a good sign for Thornton coming off a disastrous second season. He went for 91 scoreless yards on 13 receptions in 2023. Thornton is still off the redraft radar but dynasty managers can hold onto him for a little longer.
