Vrabel Protects Patriots’ Stars in Preseason Amid Depth Concerns

Patriots coach Mike Vrabel is resting key starters, including QB Drake Maye, for the early preseason games because the team isn’t very deep. He’s weighing the need for game reps against injury risk and says the plan for the final tune-up vs. the Browns will depend on how prepared the roster is, with the regular-season opener at Seattle looming and younger players needing live reps to be ready.

Maye Leads Eye-Opening Patriots-Eagles Joint Practice Sparks

In a game-like joint practice, Drake Maye was the standout, commanding plays and distributing to top targets as he led the field. A.J. Brown anchored the receivers with seven catches, while the run game looked solid for the Patriots with Will Campbell and Alijah Vera-Tucker paving the way, though the edge-setting defense needs work. Milton Williams disrupted the Patriots’ line, and Craig Woodson shined in the secondary with two interceptions and a sack, supported by other picks from Jones, Vildor and Saunders Jr. Kicker Andy Borregales redeemed a miss by drilling multiple long kicks, including a 57-yarder. DeMario Douglas and Kyle Williams also paced standout performances, while Hassan Haskins fumbled and Kayshon Boutte had a tipped pass that led to an INT. The teams will return for the final open practice tomorrow.

Maye Edges Jones in Foxboro as Patriots-Colts Practice Highlights Depth

In Foxboro, the Patriots and Colts held a joint practice where Drake Maye generally outperformed Colts QB Daniel Jones in 11-on-11s, though Maye threw an interception on the final drive as Jones capped his sequence with a late TD. The Patriots’ reserves won both 1-minute drills, with Tommy DeVito connecting on a long TD to Mack Hollins and later a two-point conversion to Eli Raridon. Dell Pettus stood out on defense, while Jonathan Taylor looked sharp for Indy behind a strong Colts line. New England mixed in rookies and depth players—Eli Raridon stood out as a target, Marcellas Dial Jr. logged multiple breakups, and Elijah Ponder flashed with a would-be sack. Absences and injuries clouded the day (Gonzalez, Woods, Brown out; Elliss limited; Barmore sidelined), with next practice Aug. 19 vs the Eagles.

Drake Maye leads strong Patriots showing in Colts joint practice, ends with late turnover

Two-hour, full-pads joint practice at Gillette saw Drake Maye threading the Patriots’ offense with multiple explosive plays to A.J. Brown, Romeo Doubs and Eli Raridon, but his day ended on a sour note with an end-zone interception by Cam Bynum on the final two-minute drive. Tom DeVito continued to impress for New England, throwing a deep touchdown to Kyle Williams and connecting with Raridon and Henry for scores. The absence of Christian Gonzalez and Carlton Davis left the secondary exposed at times, while the Colts found rhythm late against the backups. John Saunders Jr. added a late interception for NE, and Borregales went 5-for-7 on field goals as teams prep for the preseason opener, in which Maye isn’t expected to play.

Gonzalez's deal could steer Maye's looming extension

The Patriots’ ongoing talks with cornerback Christian Gonzalez could influence quarterback Drake Maye’s upcoming extension, as Maye deflects questions about his own deal and focuses on playing. Gonzalez’s push for top-market terms and the resulting cap implications may force the team to balance salaries across premium positions, potentially shaping how they approach Maye’s contract next year and other high‑priced players.
