New England's third-round 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.

Raridon's 44% snap share and receiver work create future upside as No. 2 TE.
The third-round TE has established himself in the offense playing 44% of offensive snaps as the No. 2 option behind Hunter Henry. Raridon's athleticism has translated to the pros and Josh McDaniels has effectively used him on runaway routes to get him on the move. While the coaching staff has been impressed with his growth as a run blocker—still a work in progress after being at the point of attack for several run stuffs in Chicago—his receiver work and ability to create mismatches leaves excitement for his future role. Coach Vrabel noted Raridon blocks better than in previous exposure and is growing and gaining confidence each day.
