Day 1 of Training Camp ✅ LIVE Patriots Daily at 3 PM ET with @tkyles39 & @mikekadlick with reactions & thoughts on everything they saw from Day 1 of camp 📺: youtube.com/live/cc83oeuBN…
Drake Maye on what he’s looking forward to most heading into Year 2: “I think there are guys around here that are tired of losing. We wanna win. I think that’s what I’m most excited about.”
Drake Maye on rookie WR Kyle Williams: “He’s coming among. He’s looking good … he’s just going to get better and better.”
Drake Maye gave Kyle Williams a chance on a comeback with Christian Gonzalez in coverage. The rookie picked the ball out of the air for a nice contested catch.
Drake Maye on heading into his second #Patriots training camp: “It’s a lot different. You know what to expect.” Says he feels good about the offense.
WR Stefon Diggs draws a large crowd. Says he’s “super” excited to be back playing football after an eight month recovery from ACL surgery.
LB Robert Spillane on his first #Patriots training camp practice: “What a great fan base. All the energy out here was awesome.”
#Patriots finish things up here on with some conditioning. Day 1 complete.
Drake Maye gave Kyle Williams a chance on a comeback with Christian Gonzalez in coverage. The rookie picked the ball out of the air for a nice contested catch.
Back to 11s. Drake Maye finds Hunter Henry down the seam on a nice touch throw. Split Robert Spillane and Kyle Dugger in coverage.
Maye just tried to find Pop Douglas down the middle of the field. Jabrill Peppers under cut it and dropped an easy INT.
Drake Maye just missed a wide open Kyle Williams on a corner route. Took a profit checking it down to Stefon Diggs instead.
The #Patriots began today’s 11-on-11 period with “Crazy Train” on the speakers.
I can’t get over how electric this. Watched it 20 times today. RIP Ozzy Osbourne.
First play of 11-on-11 is a crossing route, Maye completes to Diggs. Carlton Davis in coverage.
Mike Vrabel is playing free safety against the #Patriots starting offense to kick off practice.
Two notes on #Patriots WR Stefon Diggs: 1. He looks fast. 2. He’s first up in every wide receiver drill. Leader.
Here’s a look at how Stefon Diggs is moving:
Hollins (PUP) left practice. He’s working on the lower field.
Currently on PUP, WR Mack Hollins is here—in a jersey, though not in shoes—for the #Patriots first training camp practice. We’ll see if he participates.
Missing from Day 1 of #Patriots training camp: — WR Ja'Lynn Polk S Josh Minkins (NFI), OT Vederian Lowe (PUP), TE Austin Hooper (PUP) are also not here.
Stefon Diggs almost lost the dog on puppy adoption day 😂 The Patriots arrive for Day 1 of training camp - #patriots #newenglandpatriots
