Today’s practice was brought forward to 12pm after forecasts showed thunderstorms were in the Foxborough area at 4pm, the original practice time. This would be the final public practice for the team before Thursday’s preseason game against the New York Giants.

Here are the Tweets Of Note from Patriots Training Camp Day 11!

Isaiah Wynn was the only new player not present with Devin Asiasi returning after he left practice early yesterday.

There is some video evidence on Doug’s post chain and it’s not pretty viewing. I feel like this is such a simple thing to get right, and not something I’ve seen the coaches having issues with previously. Jakobi Meyers had to take throwing duties today for some of the individual drills.

I wonder if the team will bring in an additional QB as an extra thrower?

A sign of things to come as the offense began fighting back (literally) against the defense.

Encouraging stuff here for the line, who has certainly played a part in the offensive woes in recent sessions, good to get the run going with clear gaps.

The Patriots had a padded walkthrough/gameday-style practice in Gillette Stadium Friday night, but I didn’t feel there was anything major to report back on so we’re back for today’s afternoon session!

Here are all of the Tweets Of Note from Patriots Training Camp Day 10!

Another beautiful day for work on the practice field, like this afternoon, tomorrow’s practice is also slated to start at 4pm, open to the public for free from 3pm.

Strong is certainly up against it to find a role this year given how stacked the running back room is, but Bill noted that the rookie is working hard.

Probably the healthiest the team has been all offseason as a bunch of players returned today. As we now enter the third week of camp, my worries increase for James White’s future as he remains on the PUP list.

Getting Jahlani Tavai back is good news after real concern last week that he had suffered a major injury.

Thornton continues to impress in drills and is beginning to show off his express speed which I’m sure delighted all in attendance today, my expectation for his rookie-season involvement is beginning to grow.

Day 8 is in the books after a hot morning on the practice fields next to Gillette Stadium. Football is so close to being back for us all as the Pats continue to put in the work ahead of their first preseason game next Thursday against the Giants.

Let’s take a look at the Tweets Of Note from Day 8 of the Patriots 2022 Training Camp!

Not a cloud in the sky for what was an absolute scorcher in Foxboro, oh what I’d give to have been there sunning it up.

Caley had at one point been considered the next OC in waiting for the team, but instead remains the TEs coach.

No Matt Judon or Dalton Keene, who were the only new absences today, good to get a group of returns who were missing yesterday, however.

We’re already finished with Wednesday of week 2, this preseason is going quick, especially as the Pats welcome the New York Giants to Gillette Stadium a week on Friday.

Here are the Tweets Of Note from Patriots Training Camp Day 7!

A lighter day today for the team, but as Tom Curran notes, the session has set things up nicely for tomorrow, likely when the pads will come back on along with some real high temperatures!

Jonnu Smith has had a nice camp so far, here’s his early morning ritual before practice.

Hoyer returns but was on a separate field today as he recovers from an illness.

With no James White, the top 3 backs on the roster continue to put in the work for the passing game, it’s looking more and more likely that Montgomery will have a role to play for at least the beginning of the season.

The rookie defensive back has been involved in the punt return rotations but looks to have the edge as we head towards the preseason games. Remember, Jones is considered one of the best returners in recent NCAA history.

Alex Barth notes that the team were trying to iron out mistakes seen on film today in a much slower practice session, the offense still has a ways to go and they need a bounce-back day soon.

Pads back tomorrow? Let’s hope so!

Another day of pads in the books, and another day on top for the Patriots defense. The first preseason game against the Giants is in less than a week, with still much work to be done.

Let’s take a look at the Tweets Of Note from Training Camp Day 6!

Dalton Keene was the only new absence, joining Brian Hoyer who was also missing again.

The first real note about Ronnie Perkins, the third-round pick from last year’s draft. Perkins is still only 22, and has an opportunity to play a role this year, starting with the preseason games, he’ll be one to keep an eye on.

With Mac presumably having his reps managed today to ensure he doesn’t get burned out, Bailey Zappe got a ton of important time in competitive 11-on-11 practice. The rookie could well be earning himself a place on the roster.

After what felt like forever (it was only a week), we have pads! Pads mean an increase in physicality to practice, and it really is the first time you’ll be able to begin making informed opinions on who may or may not make the roster.

Week 2 of Patriots Training Camp is here, let’s see what were the Tweets Of Note!

Mike D keeps bringing the different camera angles from camp, another glorious day, made even better by the addition of shoulder pads.

Just before practice, a report broke that punter Jake Bailey had signed a new 4-year extension with the team, making him one of the league’s highest-paid players at the position. This will apparently free up some cap space whilst confirming Bailey as the team’s punter long-term.

The defense gets some reinforcements thanks to these three returning to the field. Reports were that they worked back in at a steady pace, but I’m just glad they’re back out there and we’ll get to take a look at Peppers especially, I think he could play a role for the team this season if he can stay healthy.

Just a downfield rep here, but Mac Jones spent a portion of today’s session throwing deep passes, something which Pats fans will be wanting to see more of in the regular season.
