FOXBOROUGH — Day 4 of Patriots Training Camp felt like the first real day of football this summer. Fast tempo, full-team competition, and the deep passing game finally opened up. This was the final unpadded session before Monday, when pads begin — and with it, a clearer picture of who’s actually winning these position battles.
Attendance & Injuries:
• WR Mack Hollins (PUP) — Did Not Practice
• TE Austin Hooper (PUP) — Did Not Practice
• OT Vederian Lowe (PUP) — Did Not Practice
• CB Carlton Davis — Limited, continued light work
• DT Jahvaree Ritzie — Limited, still ramping up
• LB Jahlani Tavai left practice early with a reported lower-body/calf issue.
(Ja’Lynn Polk still not at practice WITH TEAM – however, he was on opposite field doing solo work)
Camp Trends After 4 Days:
• Drake Maye/McDaniels opening things up — deeper throws, off-script plays, visible leadership.
• Pop Douglas remains the guy on offense so far through camp — explosive cuts, good hands, the clear standout.
• Kayshon Boutte still works with starting WRs; Kyle Williams slightly outpaced Kendrick Bourne so far
• TreVeyon Henderson is proving he belongs — legit homerun hitter
• Defense is being molded around Spillane — making consistent plays and showing communication strength.
Drake Maye Report – Day 4 Stats:
• 7-on-7: 4/7
• 11-on-11: 8/17
Started slow but took command late, hitting Pop Douglas and Javon Baker on deep touchdowns. He had some misses early, but this was easily his most aggressive day yet — attacking tight windows and showing the confidence of a future QB1.
Wide Receiver Highlights:
• Pop Douglas – 3 grabs in team drills, including a beautiful deep TD from Maye. He continues to eat in this Josh McDaniels offense.
• Javon Baker – Long touchdown in 7-on-7. Huge bounce-back day.
• Kayshon Boutte – Used consistently with the starters. Red zone and vertical looks.
• Kyle Williams (R) – Steady and smooth. Hasn’t dropped much all week.
• Stefon Diggs – 2 catches on 6 targets. Had a drop and a hard fall near the sideline, taking out gatorade container.
• Kendrick Bourne – Running hard, getting his own work sporadically
• Efton Chism III (R) – Working with the 2s and 3s. Special teams value emerging; still on the right track
Defense Notes:
• Robert Spillane – Two PBUs today. Vocal, physical, setting the tone.
• Jack Gibbens – Tipped a ball that led to a pick. Very active day.
• Jabrill Peppers – Jumped that tipped pass for an interception. Instinctual. Took it to the endzone
• Keion White & Milton Williams – Maye was under pressure at times today thanks to these two. Although Keion was held in check for the most part against Campbell.
🚀 Special Teams Watch:
• Andres Borregales – 3-for-4 on kicks, including a missed XP. Did hit from 50.
• John Parker Romo – Still perfect in camp. Clean ball rotation. (1 kick was so close that it’s ‘under review’)
• TreVeyon Henderson – Took return reps and looked explosive. Great vision and burst on offense as well – taking first team reps in and out with Rhamondre (as expected)
🎤 Fan Questions Covered in the Video:
• What’s going on with Efton Chism’s reps?
• How’s the O-line shaping up?
• Is Greg Bedard????? coaching Campbell?! (Spoiler: He’s not lol)
Morgan Moses continues to mentor Will Campbell after nearly every rep, and Jared Wilson is quietly taking reps at both center and guard. The pads go on Monday — that’s when the real answers start coming.
