The New England Patriots were originally scheduled to hit the practice fields behind Gillette Stadium at 10:00 am today, but the weather forecast forced the team to move the session up 45 minutes. The start time may have been different than initially anticipated but a) the Patriots still had to practice in rainy and windy conditions with temperatures in the low 60s, and b) the intensity was what had to be expected during a full-pads session that resembled a scrimmage at times.
With that said, let’s recap what happened at today’s two-hour practice.
Attendance
Absent: DT Beau Allen, WR Will Hastings, LB Brandon King (Reserve/PUP), S Devin McCourty, LB Cassh Maluia, RB Lamar Miller (Active/PUP), LB Josh Uche
- While no players returned compared to yesterday’s practice, two more were added to the list of absentees: rookie linebackers Josh Uche and Cassh Maluia.
