The NFL offseason is in full swing, but that does not mean players and coaches will be inactive until training camp opens in late July. Quite the opposite actually, especially when it comes to doing work off the field — something the New England Patriots’ rookies experienced last week: the world champions’ first-year players made a day trip to Boston that included a visit to Boston Children’s Hospital.
The Patriots’ rookie class, which makes the trip to the hospital on an annual basis, helped patients and staff prepare decorations for a party before visiting individual rooms.
