FOXBORO, Mass. — Over the years, the New England Patriots have fielded many men who hardly look like football players. They probably are the all-time leaders in carrying or working out players who don’t look tailor-made for the gridiron.
Well, there might be no player in Patriots history who fits that description more than Gunner Olszewski.
Before we go any further, you should know this article won’t offer you much in the way of information on Olszewski, who played receiver, cornerback, safety and returned kicks Thursday night against the New York Giants.

Instead, this story is all about a photo in which the 22-year-old looks like he’d be more at home in a high school locker room than the palatial Patriots’ digs.

So, have the Patriots found another diamond in the rough?
Your guess is as good as ours. But as far as making the team, Olszewski and the rest of Patriots nation will learn his fate by Saturday at 4 p.m. ET, when New England announces its 53-man roster.
