Zimmer has reportedly gotten tired of having to "manufacture" touches for Patterson since he struggles to do it in the normal offense
Yeah but good things happen when the dude touches the football. Either way, he could fill the role that Tate does while bringing more to the table. You can always get a WR to run better routes. In the meantime, he'd be a definite upgrade as a returner.
In 2 years he has long catches of 67 and 79 yards, four TD runs of at least 33 yards and a pair of KR TD's. He may do some frustrating things, but the ability is there. You want an upgrade for Tate? I'd say he qualifies.
The training, nutrition, medicine, fitness, playbooks and rules evolve. The athlete does not.
