The New England Patriots held their first media-access OTA practice under new head coach Mike Vrabel, showcasing a more intense atmosphere than previous years. Offensively, the practice was described as “a little sloppy,” with quarterback Drake Maye struggling, including throwing four interceptions, two of which were picked off by Christian Gonzalez. In contrast, the defense displayed significant talent, and overall, the team’s faster and more demanding approach indicated an improvement over the previous year, with fewer unforced errors noted during practice.
