We’re now a full week into training camp and the team has had five-straight practices in pads (though the intensity was a little dialed back today per reports). We’ll have some general thoughts about what we’ve heard and learned in this first week later today.
For now, here are some tweets that stood out about today’s practice.
Top plays: Ryan Mallett long bomb TD to Shane Vereen (CB Justin Green in coverage), Tom Brady to Julian Edelman connection up right sideline

James White broke free during 11v11s and when everyone went to let up, Revis dropped him.

Another tough day for Garoppolo. Was 0 for 4 in 7-on-7s and threw a pick-6 to Butler in 11-on-11s.

LB Steve Beauharnais has impressed me multiple times in #Patriots training camp, as well. Good reserve LB. Can cover, play special teams.

McCourty just stopped Ridley at the goal line and the defense went nuts

Darrelle Revis with a pick-six off Tom Brady in team work with the offense starting backed up at the 1-yd line. Nice anticipation by 24.
