Aaron Dobson happy to see injured players return to action

Aaron Dobson says that he can benefit from the return of his more experienced teammates, rather than be worried by the possibility of seeing less of the ball.

New England Patriots wide receiver Aaron Dobson has claimed that he is pleased to see the likes of Rob Gronkowski, Shane Vereen and Danny Amendola back in action after lengthy spells on the sidelines.

Rookie Dobson has played a key role in the Patriots offense so far this season due to the injuries of his teammates, and he feels their return will help him going forward, rather than hinder him.

With defensive coverage now focusing on the more experienced players in the team, Dobson hopes that he will sneak under the radar and become more open for Tom Brady to target.

Dobson told the Boston Herald: "They definitely have rode away from me before, guarding the middle of the field because Gronk is back or seeing Shane is coming out of the backfield.

"We definitely have a lot of matchup problems for defensive. Wherever the defense rolls, I guess we've got to take advantage of who's not getting double covered or whatever."

The Patriots are currently top of the AFC East with a 7-3 record.
