9 Patriots who need to step up for Jarrett Stidham next season

It needs to be a big year for N’Keal Harry.

WR N’Keal Harry

The Patriots were thrilled to land Harry at 32nd overall in the 2019 NFL Draft. They picked in him a class which included Marquise Brown (25th overall), Deebo Samuel (36th overall), A.J. Brown (51st overall), Mecole Hardman, DK Metcalf, Parris Campbell and Terry McLaurin.

Harry has a lot to prove, considering most of the players on the list above have already done so. Harry struggled with an ankle injury — and then the playbook. His ASU coach Herm Edwards urged the media and fans to be patient with Harry in 2019. But now that Harry is entering his second year, he needs to be the No. 2 — and maybe even the No. 1 — wideout in this offense. He was in the locker next to Jarrett Stidham last season. Hopefully their bond will carry over to the field.
