The media is getting a glimpse at practice, here are some nuggets on who was there and who wasn’t to digest…
Rehab Group: Wilfork, Gronk, Tommy Kelly, Will Smith, Nate Solder, Brandon Bolden, Armond Armstead, Justin Green & Deontae Skinner.
Excused Absence: Jimmy Garoppolo/Asa Watson (NFLPA Rookie Premiere in LA), Cameron Fleming (still at Stanford).
MIA: Dobson, Slater, LaFell, Dennard, Mankins, Easley, Tuipulotu.
Disappointing to see Armstead still isn’t a full-go, and I’m not sure what’s going on with Solder. No reports of offseason surgery for him. Obviously the Wilfork/Gronk/Kelly/Smith group were all expected to likely be rehabbing.
The MIA group is full of surprises outside of Easley, though I was hopeful he’d at least be in the rehab group. LaFell was practicing earlier this week, maybe he just tweaked something. Dobson not a surprise though, he’s recovering from surgery.
Mankins/Dennard/Slater are all big question marks.
