8 Patriots who need to step up in Tom Brady’s absence

Without Tom Brady, a few more Patriots will take on larger roles.

Isaiah Wynn, LT

Wynn missed his rookie season with a torn Achilles and sat out half of last year with a toe injury. 2020 needs to be about proving that he can stay healthy and be the franchise left tackle. Many have questioned whether or not Wynn could move positions down the road and play guard. He should want to erase that narrative.

The former Georgia Bulldog has the tenacity, ability, and edge to be a solid left tackle for years to come. He just has to show it for a prolonged period of time. If Wynn can take the backside pressure off of whatever quarterback is playing, he can take one thing off their mind.
