Fantasy Impact:

The recovery time should be 6-8 weeks from the procedure but could vary depending on healing and re-acclimation to football. This puts him on track to potentially return by as early as Week 4 during the season. When healthy, he'll likely be a deep threat receiver for the Patriots offense. He doesn't hold too much upside from a fantasy football perspective.
