The New England Patriots signed Romeo Doubs this offseason to replace Stefon Diggs as their top pass catcher, but they are also expected to acquire A.J. Brown soon.
Doubs is coming from a Green Bay Packers offense that does not have a true No. 1 receiver by philosophy. However, on the Patriots, he was going to have an opportunity to be a true No. 1 option. The Patriots gave him a four-year, $68 million deal, worth up to $80 million with performance-based bonuses.
However, it was recently reported that the Patriots are likely to acquire Brown from the Eagles after June 1. The Patriots not drafting a receiver and the Eagles trading up for a receiver in the first round seem indicative of a trade coming soon. With the likelihood of Brown joining the Patriots seemingly at an all-time high, Doubs was asked about playing alongside him.
