Malik Cunningham Could Be Part Of Game Plan Against Raiders
one year ago

New England Patriots rookie quarterback/wide receiver Malik Cunningham has been part of the team's game plan this week against the Las Vegas Raiders. However, with seven players already ruled out and 10 more listed as questionable for Sunday's game in Vegas, the Patriots might need to use Cunningham's promotion/activation from the practice squad to the active roster on another position. "He's a smart kid, works hard, and the opportunities he's had, he's shown a lot of improvement," head coach Bill Belichick said. Those wondering if Cunningham will replace Mac Jones under center can probably keep dreaming, but the 25-year-old could be used as a utility weapon for a Pats offense that will be without receivers JuJu Smith-Schuster and Demario Douglas due to concussions. He was a dual-threat QB in college and has some rushing upside.
