After being unable to make it through mandatory minicamp in June, it seems as if Jonnu Smith will be ready for the New England Patriots’ training camp set to begin next week. According to a report by Pro Football Focus’ Doug Kyed, the veteran tight end should be good to go when the team hits the practice fields for the first time this summer.
Smith originally arrived in New England as an unrestricted free agent in March. Joining the organization on a four-year, $50 million contract, he will play a prominent role on a rebuilt tight end depth chart also featuring fellow offseason addition Hunter Henry.
