There isn’t a more accomplished player at the tight end position than Delanie Walker that is currently available. The main concern is that he has appeared in just eight of the Tennessee Titans’ 32 regular season games since the start of the 2018 season.

The 2017 season was when Walker last appeared in the majority of the Titans’ regular season games. During that season, he was targeted 111 times resulting in 74 catches, 807 yards, and three touchdowns. He continued to display an ability to make an impact.

It could be a risky option for the Patriots to sign Walker when considering his recent run with injury concerns. At the very least, he could provide their two rookie tight ends with a helpful veteran presence in addition to making an impact when healthy.
