19 Aug
Summary
- Undrafted WR Cameron Dorner impressing coaches and QB Morton.
- CB Brandon Crossley shows promise despite tough competition.
- CB Channing Canada earns first-team reps and kick return chances.
The New England Patriots' training camp is highlighting several emerging talents beyond the established stars. Undrafted wide receiver Cameron Dorner has impressed as a top rookie, particularly in his connection with quarterback Behren Morton. His performance in the preseason opener, despite a penalty, shows promise.
Cornerback Brandon Crossley, a non-rookie, is also making strides. Despite a deep cornerback room, he delivered five total tackles in the preseason opener and is stacking strong practice days. His chances could improve with further strong showings.
Another player making a name for himself is rookie cornerback Channing Canada. An undrafted player from TCU, Canada has seen reps with the first-team defense and is competing for kick return duties. He led the team in tackles during the preseason opener.
