• 0:00
  Speaker 1: The Patriots are back in pads after a day off,
• 0:02
  Speaker 1: but they were inside the field house today a little
• 0:04
  Speaker 1: bit wet.
• 0:05
  Speaker 2: They still got after it. Let's get into it.
• 0:15
  Speaker 1: Welcome everybody to the training Camp cast presented by New
• 0:18
  Speaker 1: Balance and Yes, today was practice number seven.
• 0:20
  Speaker 2: Paw, is that crazy number eight number? It's because you
• 0:24
  Speaker 2: weren't there, the one that I missed. You missed one day,
• 0:28
  Speaker 2: I missed one.
• 0:30
  Speaker 1: But let's start off with something crazy. AJ Brown dislocated
• 0:33
  Speaker 1: his thumb and kept practicing. We didn't find out till
• 0:35
  Speaker 1: afterwards we saw him.
• 0:35
  Speaker 2: How did you know?
• 0:37
  Speaker 1: Spoken an NFL network afterwards, A J. Brown came in
• 0:41
  Speaker 1: and told us, but don't worry everybody, he finished practice.
• 0:43
  Speaker 1: Doesn't look like something major, but a little bit of
• 0:45
  Speaker 1: news there. Nobody wants to see him get her.
• 0:46
  Speaker 3: Yeah, there was a rep early on him, and Christian
• 0:50
  Speaker 3: Gonzale says, they've done, you know, several times already joined
• 0:53
  Speaker 3: this camp. Pretty physical at the point, and then all
• 0:55
  Speaker 3: of a sudden, it looked like Brown just kind of
• 0:57
  Speaker 3: stopped his route. Gonzo ended up picking the pass off
• 1:00
  Speaker 3: off you know at that stage went over.
• 1:02
  Speaker 2: It was with the trainers for a little while.
• 1:04
  Speaker 3: Looked like he got taped up, and then he was
• 1:06
  Speaker 3: right back out there for the next team period and
• 1:07
  Speaker 3: took part in the rest of the practice. So I
• 1:09
  Speaker 3: wouldn't be overly concerned about it. I don't think Aja
• 1:13
  Speaker 3: himself would have been talking about it as much as
• 1:15
  Speaker 3: he did if it was something to worry about.
• 1:17
  Speaker 1: Yeah, he'd been caught a couple slants after that, Yeah,
• 1:19
  Speaker 1: one down the field passed with Caroon Pronci and coverage.
• 1:21
  Speaker 2: But he looks like he's going to be okay.
• 1:23
  Speaker 1: But overall, and I'd say a lot of like maybe
• 1:25
  Speaker 1: short yardage running work today, more red zone stuff. You
• 1:28
  Speaker 1: can see how they're really starting to string this whole
• 1:30
  Speaker 1: thing together.
• 1:30
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I think, you know, when you have a condensed
• 1:32
  Speaker 4: field inside, there's no real point in putting the ball
• 1:35
  Speaker 4: on the twenty and trying to play a full field game.
• 1:37
  Speaker 4: So I think they were more intight today. But I
• 1:40
  Speaker 4: feel like we're getting into the point of training camp
• 1:42
  Speaker 4: now where there's a little bit of that grind and
• 1:44
  Speaker 4: that tension building up.
• 1:46
  Speaker 2: And it was to stuff.
• 1:47
  Speaker 4: It was inside, it was hot, it was a little
• 1:50
  Speaker 4: bit of back and forth. Very early on in practice,
• 1:53
  Speaker 4: Romeo Dobbs took an end around and Craig Woodson kind
• 1:56
  Speaker 4: of took him to the ground, and I was like, whoa, Okay,
• 1:58
  Speaker 4: it's going to be that kind of day. So I
• 2:00
  Speaker 4: think that it was a little bit of that is brewing.
• 2:03
  Speaker 4: You know, you've been practicing impads against the same people
• 2:06
  Speaker 4: for multiple practices now.
• 2:09
  Speaker 3: I will just say real quick, on that play, I
• 2:11
  Speaker 3: had the same initial reaction that Evan just did, and
• 2:13
  Speaker 3: I was like, whoa. Well, so that I think Hunter
• 2:16
  Speaker 3: Henry may have kind of helped Woodson along it. I
• 2:21
  Speaker 3: wo just I don't want people to think that we
• 2:23
  Speaker 3: were yeah.
• 2:24
  Speaker 2: Carry on, carry on.
• 2:26
  Speaker 1: I don't want to make too much of it though,
• 2:27
  Speaker 1: but the connection I thought still made it was Tommy
• 2:30
  Speaker 1: DeVito with MATC Collins three a few touchdowns. I mean,
• 2:32
  Speaker 1: you know, we're getting something, Like you said, ev it's
• 2:33
  Speaker 1: getting to be a little bit of a grind. But
• 2:35
  Speaker 1: I do think it's worth pointing out, you know, some
• 2:37
  Speaker 1: of these guys on the second team reps that are,
• 2:39
  Speaker 1: you know, consistently making plays. I think Tommy DeVito and
• 2:41
  Speaker 1: Baron Morton, by that note, have both been pretty.
• 2:44
  Speaker 2: Solid this camp.
• 2:45
  Speaker 1: Seems like Baron Morton's getting more opportunities than we saw.
• 2:47
  Speaker 1: Ben Wooldridge get last year and the ball just to
• 2:50
  Speaker 1: Paul's thing, it doesn't really hit the ground a lot
• 2:52
  Speaker 1: no matter who's in there.
• 2:52
  Speaker 2: I just think it's a positive sign. I know, look, we.
• 2:54
  Speaker 1: Don't want to see Tommy DeVito, we'd like to stick
• 2:56
  Speaker 1: with Drake May for the length of the season, but
• 2:58
  Speaker 1: promising signing that this guy came in. They gave them
• 3:01
  Speaker 1: basically the backup job and he's performing pretty well.
• 3:03
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I would say with DeVito, you want to see
• 3:07
  Speaker 4: those guys be able to showcase their skills more so
• 3:10
  Speaker 4: maybe than I'm worried about Tommy DeVito. And sometimes we
• 3:13
  Speaker 4: see these backup quarterbacks that frankly are just so inaccurate
• 3:17
  Speaker 4: that you can't really gauge the receivers. And mac Collins
• 3:20
  Speaker 4: you mentioned, I would say Kayshawn Boody to an extent
• 3:23
  Speaker 4: as well.
• 3:23
  Speaker 2: Today.
• 3:24
  Speaker 4: Both those guys, whenever they rep with the twos, it's
• 3:27
  Speaker 4: so clear that they are cut above everybody else that's
• 3:29
  Speaker 4: on the field. Mac Collins had a couple, but I
• 3:32
  Speaker 4: think the best throw of the day was the back
• 3:33
  Speaker 4: pylon throw that de Vito made the Booty and that
• 3:37
  Speaker 4: one was great. Yeah, right on the money. Could not
• 3:40
  Speaker 4: be defended because it was just so perfectly placed. So
• 3:43
  Speaker 4: both those receivers, it's very clear to me when they
• 3:46
  Speaker 4: get down to the twos and are just we talk
• 3:48
  Speaker 4: about it all the time. There's seven guys that they
• 3:50
  Speaker 4: need to get reps for, and Mac Collins and Kaysehan
• 3:54
  Speaker 4: Boody will sometimes get the rep with the twos and
• 3:57
  Speaker 4: it's just very clear that they're too good for that
• 4:00
  Speaker 4: group of people on an NFL field. So Mac Collins
• 4:03
  Speaker 4: did almost take out a reporter. I'm not going to
• 4:05
  Speaker 4: name names he did. Okay, no, it was. It was
• 4:09
  Speaker 4: pretty close, but it was. It was a good showing
• 4:12
  Speaker 4: from I think all those guys, Booty, Holland's nice practices.
• 4:15
  Speaker 2: Good back and forth. I thought I thought they were
• 4:17
  Speaker 2: pretty competitive. I agree with you.
• 4:20
  Speaker 3: Those guys caught passes, but I thought there was some
• 4:23
  Speaker 3: some balls they could have caught that they didn't, both
• 4:25
  Speaker 3: Holland's in and Booty, And especially with Booty, it's striking
• 4:29
  Speaker 3: to me because generally anytime the ball gets thrown to
• 4:31
  Speaker 3: him and he gets his hands on it, he catches it.
• 4:33
  Speaker 3: There were a couple today that well is slant went
• 4:35
  Speaker 3: off his hands up.
• 4:36
  Speaker 4: Yeah, that was a clear drop on this line, and.
• 4:38
  Speaker 3: There were a couple of the times I thought Holland
• 4:41
  Speaker 3: showed some frustration. We're getting getting locked up a little bit.
• 4:44
  Speaker 3: So I did think there was some good back and forth.
• 4:46
  Speaker 3: We heard from Kevin Bayert after practice sort of talked
• 4:49
  Speaker 3: about the value of that you don't want, you know,
• 4:51
  Speaker 3: it's never going to be one side just sort of
• 4:53
  Speaker 3: carrying the day. And and I don't think that was
• 4:55
  Speaker 3: the case today. Good good, solid competition, good heat. I
• 4:58
  Speaker 3: thought between the two maybe it was because we were
• 5:01
  Speaker 3: so much closer, you feel, to the field. You could
• 5:04
  Speaker 3: hear the reactions after plays. But I thought they were
• 5:07
  Speaker 3: getting after a pretty good Yeah. You see the guys
• 5:08
  Speaker 3: are actually pretty big too when you're that close.
• 5:10
  Speaker 2: To the mark.
• 5:10
  Speaker 3: Yes, oh yeah, turns out sneaky NFL players, sneaky big.
• 5:14
  Speaker 1: NFL players, sneaky big do so colon breaking news here.
• 5:18
  Speaker 1: Gate back is starting to ramp up a little bit,
• 5:21
  Speaker 1: you know. One I think one one on one rep.
• 5:23
  Speaker 4: Yes, a little bit of team I think he tried
• 5:25
  Speaker 4: to sneak into the drill every two seconds and Mike
• 5:28
  Speaker 4: Smith had to keep pulling him back and pulling him back.
• 5:31
  Speaker 4: He went up against Laurence Mets, who's probably not going
• 5:33
  Speaker 4: to be on the team if we're being honest. But
• 5:35
  Speaker 4: he did beat him in the one on one, and
• 5:37
  Speaker 4: he had a handful of team reps as well in
• 5:41
  Speaker 4: eleven on eleven's and we saw him go right around
• 5:44
  Speaker 4: Marcus Bryant to blow up a run play at one
• 5:47
  Speaker 4: point in practice. So he looks like he's in great shape.
• 5:50
  Speaker 4: It doesn't look like he was sitting on the couch
• 5:52
  Speaker 4: waiting to get the contract done. He looks like a
• 5:56
  Speaker 4: freaking Adonis out there. I mean, if he plays as
• 5:58
  Speaker 4: well as he looked, then we're going to be in
• 6:00
  Speaker 4: good shape. So I think that's the biggest takeaway so
• 6:03
  Speaker 4: far is that he looks like he's ready to go.
• 6:05
  Speaker 4: He looks eager, he looks like he's in shape, and
• 6:08
  Speaker 4: now he just got to see how he progresses.
• 6:10
  Speaker 2: Get to those Colts joint practices next Tuesday. Baby.
• 6:12
  Speaker 3: By that time, before me, I think today he was
• 6:15
  Speaker 3: he was pretty much in there. I mean, like, like
• 6:17
  Speaker 3: Kevin said, he took some team reps, and what if
• 6:19
  Speaker 3: you're taking team reps.
• 6:20
  Speaker 2: You're sort of ready to go. Yeah. A couple so
• 6:22
  Speaker 2: a couple of housekeeping things.
• 6:23
  Speaker 1: Terrell Jennings number twenty six came off of NiFi and
• 6:26
  Speaker 1: was pret pretty much a full participate, I mean jumped
• 6:27
  Speaker 1: in there.
• 6:28
  Speaker 2: He was too.
• 6:28
  Speaker 1: He was running through the line. No Kid and Wallace,
• 6:31
  Speaker 1: Kyle Williams. We didn't see him initially. Later in practice
• 6:33
  Speaker 1: he showed up. He looked kind of wet. He was
• 6:35
  Speaker 1: all in full pads. I wonder if maybe he was
• 6:36
  Speaker 1: doing some rehab or something outside. I don't know, but
• 6:39
  Speaker 1: didn't really get into any of the team drills in
• 6:42
  Speaker 1: new number.
• 6:43
  Speaker 2: Ninety six as well. Casey Rogers.
• 6:45
  Speaker 1: So starting to see Paul some of that, you know,
• 6:47
  Speaker 1: bottom of the depth chart, No Kaid and Wallace, you
• 6:49
  Speaker 1: know what. We don't know what's going on there, but
• 6:51
  Speaker 1: it seems like they're rotating guys a little bit. You're
• 6:52
  Speaker 1: starting to see some movement.
• 6:54
  Speaker 3: Yeah, and I don't know what the situation is with Wallace,
• 6:56
  Speaker 3: but you know, the defensive lineman, you know, someone you
• 6:59
  Speaker 3: know sort.
• 6:59
  Speaker 2: Of working with the threes gets banged up.
• 7:01
  Speaker 3: They don't really have time for you to miss a
• 7:03
  Speaker 3: practice or sure, they got to bring someone in to
• 7:05
  Speaker 3: make sure that those reps get replaced.
• 7:07
  Speaker 2: So yeah, it's it's part of the balance.
• 7:09
  Speaker 3: But good to see both Actus and Terrell Jennings back,
• 7:12
  Speaker 3: and you know, maybe we'll see Harold Landry before too long.
• 7:15
  Speaker 3: I don't know how much longer. I mean, Mike Vrabel
• 7:17
  Speaker 3: did talk late last week and said that he was
• 7:20
  Speaker 3: going to be longer than those guys. So we'll see
• 7:22
  Speaker 3: if that's something that impacts the regular season. It's still
• 7:24
  Speaker 3: no Carlon Davis Evan.
• 7:25
  Speaker 1: I felt like, I think we all have noticed, you know,
• 7:28
  Speaker 1: some of these younger cornerbacks getting some opportunities here k
• 7:31
  Speaker 1: Roon PUNTI was in the midst of a couple of
• 7:33
  Speaker 1: different things today. Thought, you know, he was a good
• 7:35
  Speaker 1: pass breakup on AJ Brown. Then he had one with
• 7:38
  Speaker 1: I think it was not sure one.
• 7:39
  Speaker 3: Of the low you know, just like he was going
• 7:42
  Speaker 3: to just muscled them.
• 7:44
  Speaker 2: It took the ball away come up. That was definitely
• 7:49
  Speaker 2: a catch.
• 7:49
  Speaker 4: I'm going to pick it's the battle of possession, but
• 7:53
  Speaker 4: I feel like he had the ball and then they
• 7:55
  Speaker 4: were on the ground and after he already had possession
• 7:58
  Speaker 4: of the ball.
• 7:58
  Speaker 3: Dejannio, Well, are you a fighting about that? So I'll
• 8:02
  Speaker 3: go with Channon Crowder as the Chada Canada. I keep
• 8:05
  Speaker 3: calling him Crowder because he already wrote Crowder in his
• 8:09
  Speaker 3: update and he kept telling me about it. I thought
• 8:12
  Speaker 3: he was sort of the secondary member of the secondary
• 8:16
  Speaker 3: who really showed up. I thought he got some more
• 8:18
  Speaker 3: reps today with twos that I hadn't really seen. It's
• 8:21
  Speaker 3: been Prunty and Minor and those guys. I thought twenty
• 8:24
  Speaker 3: nine in Blue showed up today, and then again when
• 8:27
  Speaker 3: they're doing the kickoff returns, he was doing some of
• 8:29
  Speaker 3: those reps too.
• 8:30
  Speaker 4: Yeah, it seems like he's got some versatility, maybe a
• 8:33
  Speaker 4: player that could play inside. Prunty just impresses me though,
• 8:36
  Speaker 4: because of his size, speed length, he can carry a
• 8:40
  Speaker 4: go route. I mean that's for sure, like he did
• 8:42
  Speaker 4: it twice today. So I don't know if he's going
• 8:44
  Speaker 4: to be able to cover the whole route tree just yet.
• 8:46
  Speaker 4: But if you put a guy out there like that
• 8:49
  Speaker 4: that's at least not going to get burned deep, then
• 8:51
  Speaker 4: you feel pretty good about helping him out on the
• 8:53
  Speaker 4: other stuff. So with his length, with his speed, I
• 8:56
  Speaker 4: think he's got that ability to carry vertical routes down
• 8:58
  Speaker 4: the field. And when you play on the outside, that's
• 9:01
  Speaker 4: the majority of what you're going to see. So very
• 9:04
  Speaker 4: early leader, I think out of that group as like
• 9:06
  Speaker 4: the fifth cornerback that they might carry. I think Charles
• 9:09
  Speaker 4: Woods is on this team as the fourth guy, and
• 9:11
  Speaker 4: I'd say Prunty is making a push right now.
• 9:13
  Speaker 1: Yeah, Charles Woods getting a lot of reps still. Carlon
• 9:15
  Speaker 1: Davis continues to be out. That's offering opportunities to some
• 9:18
  Speaker 1: of these guys.
• 9:18
  Speaker 2: So we'll see.
• 9:19
  Speaker 1: We're in the dog days of camp now. That's been
• 9:21
  Speaker 1: four padded practices in five days. To replay on that
• 9:24
  Speaker 1: proNT We'll try to get the go to the tape
• 9:26
  Speaker 1: before next breakdown, but they'll be back in pads again tomorrow.
• 9:29
  Speaker 1: Tuesday is supposed to be a beautiful day if you're
• 9:31
  Speaker 1: able to come on down here to the Jet Stadium.
• 9:34
  Speaker 2: It's a great take
