New England Patriots rookie wide receiver Ja’Lynn Polk took to social media with a cryptic Instagram story post, following Sunday’s loss to the Jacksonville Jaguars.
Polk, who has struggled on the field, had three drops and slipped on a two-point conversion attempt in Sunday’s game. The second-round draft pick only has 10 catches for 78 yards and a touchdown through seven games. That lone touchdown came in the season-opening win against the Cincinnati Bengals.
Polk posted an image of an ellipsis followed by a peace emoji.
Social media the literal WORST thing that ever happened to some of these athletes.
This dude Ja’Lynn Polk is 22 yrs old, drafted in the 2nd a few months ago, and the lack of emotional discipline, and need to “post on social” about to torpedo his career.

There is still plenty of time for Polk to turn things around this season. It’s clear that he’s frustrated with the way things have gone, but he has to step up and overcome the current adversity he’s facing on the football field.
This is the moment when we’ll find out what kind of player Polk truly is for the Patriots.
