Patriots wide receiver DeMario “Pop” Douglas says offensive coordinator Josh McDaniels has big plans for him in New England‘s offense in 2026.
Douglas said at the Patriots’ mandatory minicamp that McDaniels has told him what kind of receiver he wants to be this season, and Douglas is ready for it.
“More savvy. Don’t do what I see on the piece on the paper. Go add my swagger to it . . . add some juice to it. He believes in me and I appreciate him for that,” Douglas said of McDaniels, via Mike Reiss of ESPN.
Douglas saw his overall production decline last season, with a career-low 31 catches, and the arrival of AJ Brown and Romeo Doubs means Douglas is going to have to prove himself to get passes thrown his way this season. He sounds eager to show he has something to contribute to the Patriots’ offense.
