Ponder Steps Up After Chaisson Leaves | New England Patriots News
Description
The Patriots are banking on Elijah Ponder to step into the edge rusher void left by departing star KLavon Chaisson, who’s now with Washington on a lucrative one-year deal. Ponder, an undrafted rookie who earned a rotational role last season and even got snaps with the starters during minicamp, is poised to take on a bigger role under coach Mike Vrabel — a mentor known for developing talent. With competition from Harold Landry and DreMont Jones, Ponder is laser-focused on seizing every opportunity and proving he’s ready to contribute on defense and special teams as the Patriots look to build around his potential.
