New England Patriots WR Josh Boyce (foot) was on the field for workouts Friday, July 26, after being severely limited in the offseason program by a foot injury.

Footballguys View: Being on the field is a good start for Boyce, who has wide receiver speed in a running back body. The Patriots could choose to groom him as a slot receiver or an outside receiver, which could greatly effect his potential opportunity to contribute this year. Outside receiver has more immediate opportunity, but if Danny Amendola goes down, the backup slot receiver will be in for some good numbers. It’s probably Julian Edelman right now, but Boyce might get a shot if Edelman can’t stay healthy in camp.
