The New England Patriots have a lot to overcome on the offensive side of the ball.
Quarterback Tom Brady might be suspended for four games. Running backs Dion Lewis and LeGarrette Blount are returning from the injured reserve. Wide receiver Julian Edelman and Danny Amendola are still recovering from offseason surgeries. The offensive line is still a major question mark.
But that's okay since there's a ton to be excited about during this offseason. Can quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo play up to his draft stock? Can Lewis return from his ACL injury to the same earth-shattering form? Will free agent signing Chris Hogan and rookie receiver Malcolm Mitchell learn the offense? How will tight ends Martellus Bennett, Rob Gronkowski, and Clay Harbor be utilized?
There are a lot of questions, but we have answers, and endless excitement about the upcoming months. Football will be back before you know it!
