"The Patriots project to have Stefon Diggs, Kayshon Boutte and DeMario Douglas as their starting receivers, with Mack Hollins and 2025 third-round pick Kyle Williams also locks as complementary options," Reiss writes. "So Chism has essentially forced the team's hand to keep six receivers and maybe even a seventh."

Chism (foot/ankle) who has missed the Patriots' last two practices, isn't likely to play in Thursday's preseason finale against the Giants, Mike Reiss of ESPN.com reports. For now, the Patriots wideout corps remains crowded,

As the Patriots have a 19-year streak of an undrafted rookie making their 53-man roster on cutdown day, Chism is likely making the strongest case to help extend the streak to two decades. He certainly has the support of at least one player who helped contribute to that streak.

Patriots executive vice president of player personnel Eliot Wolf said Chism comes to the facility at 5 a.m. to meet with wide receivers coach Todd Downing. Chism also previously said he spends time with veteran wide receiver Mack Hollins late after practice to continue going through the playbook.

New England Patriots wide receiver Efton Chism III made multiple plays on a drive that culminated into him scoring a touchdown against the Vikings.
