Eric Decker 'having a pretty hard time' in Patriots camp

New England Patriots wide receiver Eric Decker is "still having a pretty hard time" during training camp, reports NESN's Doug Kyed.

What It Means:

"Drops have been a major issue for Decker this summer," Kyed specifically noted during Monday's practice. Decker just signed with the Patriots less than two weeks ago, so things could improve as Week 1 approaches, but the veteran wideout may not be guaranteed much of a role on offense once Julian Edelman returns from his four-game suspension.

numberFire's models currently project Decker for 39.2 catches (65.0 targets), 467.5 yards, and 2.80 touchdowns in 2018.
