As was announced on Monday, the New England Patriots will kick off their offseason program in not even two weeks: on April 15, the reigning world champions will return to Gillette Stadium to start the first phase of workouts. This in combination with the upcoming NFL draft will make for a busy few weeks in Foxboro. The two events are not the only item on the organization’s agenda these days, however.
Today, the Patriots’ franchise Hall of Fame process begins as the club’s committee — a group that includes, among others, current Patriots staff member/football historian Ernie Adams — will meet for the first time this year to discuss the latest players or coaches deserving of the honor.
