Vrabel returns, Tuesday notes
By Paul Perillo, Patriots Football Weekly

Mike Vrabel became the latest Patriot to be removed from the physically unable to perform list, taking part in Tuesday practice, which amounted to little more than a walkthrough as the team finalizes its preparations for Thursday's preseason opener against the Ravens at Gillette Stadium.

...

Who’s hot: Chris Hanson – The punter has displayed a big leg throughout camp but it was his touch that drew the eye on Tuesday. He had already gotten off a few bombs heading in one direction before switching sides to work on situational kicking. He deftly landed a couple of high arcing kicks inside the 5, where the coverage team easily downed them just outside the goal line.

Who’s not: Jonathan Stupar – It’s tough to call anyone out during a glorified walkthrough but the undrafted rookie had a tough afternoon. He was replaced by Stephen Spach on one play when he didn’t know where to line up, drawing some choice words from tight ends coach Pete Mangurian, and then dropped a short pass from Cassel a short time later.

Don't worry about Stupar. BB is so brilliant he setup this display in public so that the rest of the league will read the report. This will ensure he will be able to slide to the Practice Squad. pure genius.

Hanson has been taking a beating recently, good to see him bounce back
