Day 10, 1st practice

FOXBOROUGH -- The Patriots have taken the field for their first practice on the 10th day of training camp. This is the team's 15th overall workout since camp opened on July 28.

Rookie tight end Garrett Mills is present on the field, marking his first practice.

Each of the injured players who returned yesterday -- safety Rodney Harrison, cornerback Randall Gay, center Dan Koppen, tight end Daniel Graham, and defensive linemen Johnathan Sullivan and Richard Seymour -- are all present again.

Among those players not spotted are receivers John Stone, Chad Jackson and Troy Brown; running back Patrick Pass; safety Ray Ventrone; inside linebacker Tedy Bruschi; offensive tackle Nick Kaczur; tight end Benjamin Watson; outside linebacker Chad Brown; and defensive linemen Jarvis Green and Marquise Hill.

This workout is being held in full pads.

We'll have more later in the day.

The season hasn't even started yet and our WRs are already banged up.

Hope Stone is okay... reports on him are starting to get intruiging.

If PATSNUTme is at the morning practice today, he's in for a pleasant surprise. He didn't think Rodney would be out there today.

Patience. Better now than in a month!

Generally very good news but we really need Jackson out there soon with DB (you can read Deion Branch, I read DickBreath) still sitting at home sulking.

Time to see what our penciled in H-back can do.

Be interesting to see how he lines up in the formations today.

As Bill Parcells once said about rookie Chris Slade "He looks like a golf ball in the tall grass.....Lost."

These hurt guys shouldn't be THAT lost. It's not like they've been holding out and sitting at home like DB. They're there for all the classroom stuff.

He lined up lost? That must be difficult to do.
