The New England Patriots have released wide receiver Tyquan Thornton, a second-round pick from the 2022 NFL Draft, marking the end of a disappointing chapter for the 24-year-old.

Despite his impressive speed, Thornton struggled to make an impact, finishing his career with 22 receptions for 247 yards as a rookie and just four catches for 47 yards in 2024. His release highlights the struggles of the Patriots' 2022 draft class, with only one player remaining on the active roster.

Rhamondre Stevenson, running back for the New England Patriots, is facing uncertainty for Week 6 due to a foot injury that has kept him out of practice all week. After being benched in Week 5 following multiple fumbles, his absence raises concerns for fantasy managers as the Patriots prepare to face the Houston Texans.

With a change at quarterback, the run game becomes crucial, and if Stevenson is unable to play, Antonio Gibson is expected to take on a larger role. The situation is evolving, and fantasy players should stay updated on Stevenson's status.
