FOXBOROUGH — When left tackle Trent Brown jumped early before the first snap of full-team work, it was a harbinger of things to come for the Patriots offense Monday.
As Brown ran a penalty lap for the lapse, the defense began what was an all-out assault on the offense on a sweltry afternoon. The first period included two would-be sacks (Raekwon McMillan and Carl Davis) on Mac Jones, a pair of run stuffs, a pass breakup (Marcus Jones), and an excuse-me knock down of Nelson Agholor by Mack Wilson.
Things got better for the offense during the 7-on-7 work, but the full-team drills belonged to the defense.
