Positive signalRole

Raridon's 44% snap share and receiver upside create future offensive role.

New England's third-round TE pick has established himself in the offense playing 44% of the offensive snaps as the No. 2 option behind Hunter Henry. Raridon's athleticism has translated to the pros and Josh McDaniels has done a strong job using the tight end on runaway routes to get him on the move. While the coaching staff has been impressed with Raridon's growth as a run blocker, it's expectedly still a work in progress for the rookie. Coach Vrabel noted Raridon blocks better now than in previous exposure and is growing and gaining confidence each day, leaving excitement for the future as he becomes a bigger piece of the offense.
