Report: Patriots WR N'Keal Harry generating trade interest

By Erin Walsh | Last updated 3/10/21

N'Keal Harry has failed to make a strong impression in his first two seasons with the New England Patriots, and a change of scenery could be beneficial for the 23-year-old wide receiver.

According to NFL Network's Mike Garafolo, teams have been calling the Patriots to see if they're willing to part ways with Harry.

"(Harry is an) interesting guy to watch here as we get into the start of the league year, maybe a little bit further, as we get closer to the draft because there's going to be a lot of moving parts in New England ... particularly this year," Garafolo said.

The 2019 32nd-overall pick has just 45 catches for 414 yards and four touchdowns in 21 games, which is not ideal. For comparison, Las Vegas Raiders wideout Henry Ruggs had 26 catches for 452 yards and two TDs during his rookie campaign while Denver Broncos WR Jerry Jeudy had 52 catches for 856 yards and three scores.

It wouldn't be surprising to see Bill Belichick move on from Harry as the Patriots attempt to rebuild in the aftermath of Tom Brady's departure to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

The only question is, what would the Patriots seek in return for the 23-year-old?
