New England Patriots receiver N’Keal Harry took a moment to celebrate his first NFL reception on Sunday during his team’s 17-10 win over the Philadelphia Eagles at Lincoln Financial Field on Sunday.
Harry, who the Patriots drafted at 32nd overall in the 2019 NFL Draft, missed the first nine games of the season after starting the year on injured reserve, but debuted in Week 11 when he enjoyed his first reception, an 11-yarder on a slant route. He finished the evening with three catches for 18 yards. His role is sure to increase in the coming weeks as he grows more comfortable at NFL speed.
Glory be to God🙏🏾💙 https://t.co/0ZC1Lt6f9N

Bill Belichick has never drafted a receiver as high as the Patriots picked Harry, and so expectations have been high for the young pass-catcher. His performance wasn’t particularly special, but it’s a good sign that he’s on the field after being a healthy scratch in Week 9.
