The Patriots rested their starters in the final Pre-season loss to the Tennessee Titans. The heat was brutal with a game time temp near 100o and the on-field temp was 110o. I was surprised some of the backup players played so much and the Patriots had quite a few injuries, the most serious was a knee injury to O-lineman Reilly Reiff.
It was difficult to find any positives in the game, but a few players that were on the bubble played well and others didn’t.
Positives
DT Sam Roberts It was a nice bounce back game for Roberts.
