7 years agoThe New England Patriots will release wide receiver Malcolm Mitchell (knee) on Monday, according to NFL Network insider Ian Rapoport. Mitchell had a procedure on his knee last month, but there was hope over the weekend that he could return after being seen at practice in pads. He had 32 catches for 401 yards and four touchdowns as a rookie in 2016 but didn't play at all due to knee issues last year. As of now, Eric Decker and Phillip Dorsett might have the leg up to seeing a lot of playing time to begin the year with Julian Edelman suspended for four games.--Keith Hernandez - RotoBaller
