Malcolm Mitchell

Through three regular-season games, the snaps played by New England Patriots wide receivers have provided early-season insight on how the coaching staff views the group.

Chris Hogan -- 175 of 215
Julian Edelman -- 169 of 215
Malcolm Mitchell -- 87 of 215
Danny Amendola -- 51 of 215

It's notable that Hogan is leading the way and Edelman is trailing by a significant amount. The story said Amendola's time is down but his impact hasn't been significant with a couple of key third down catches to go along with two touchdowns catches. The story added Amendola usually plays in three-WR sets but sometimes the team opts to have Hogan, Edelman and Mitchell together instead. Keep in mind, Amendola missed all of training camp so it's possible the numbers even out a bit going forward.
