Brandon Browner, Brian Tyms activated, Kenbrell Thompkins claimed by Raiders
Former Patriots undrafted receiver Kenbrell Thompkins had an awful lot of hype around his name last summer.
How things have changed.
The receiver most famous for his game winning catch in Week 5 of last season, was released by the team a few days ago and just claimed by the Oakland Raiders.
Kenbrell Thompkins claimed off waivers by the Raiders, per source.

It was a move that surprised many, with the Patriots being so thin at receiver. However, Thompkins was inconsistent on the field with many drops.
The Pats have brought in help though, with receiver Brian Tyms being activated onto the roster after being suspended for the first four games for adderal. The team will also get a boost to their secondary, as prize free agent acquisition Brandon Browner will be finally activated as well.
The #Patriots are activating CB Brandon Browner today, per source. Had been serving a suspension, wasn’t activated for Sunday

#Patriots WR Brian Tyms, who was also serving a suspension, will be activated, I’m told. Two spots need to be cleared
