Final day of training camp today (i.e., last day of practice open to the public and media).



Mary Paoletti, CSNNE:

Tom Brady is at practice. Brace on the left knee. Teams are in shells... we're expecting a walk-thru.

Zuri Berry, Boston Globe:

Tom Brady is at practice with a brace on.

Sighs of relief here as Tom Brady dons red jersey for practice.

Comments from Patriots fan Ceese Carcieri:


- Tom Brady is out on the game field here at Gillette, playing a catch with a kid from the Make-A-Wish Foundation.

- Last day of camp here. Starts at 2 o clock. Walk thru for the Pats-Bucs.

- The crowd calmed down from yesterday. Not that many people here today. Last day of camp.

- Every time Bucs coaches walk around the field. Weird.

- Tim Tebow is out on the field. One of the first non special teams Pats players.

- Tom Brady is here today. He has a brace on his left knee. No full pads today. Just a walk thru.

- Defensive back Devin McCourty is once again wearing his red non contact jersey.

- Onside kick work right now for the Pats.

- Tom Brady just jogged onto the field. All looks good with his knee. He wouldn't be out here if he wasn't okay.

- Brandon Bolden just got yelled at for being in the wrong position to begin a play.

- Tom Brady wasn't wearing a knee brace during practice yesterday. He always wears one. Supporting one again today.

- Tom Brady looks fine. He's jogging and joking around during these stretches.

Comments from Derek Havens, Patriots Haven:


- Tom Brady is on the practice field, wearing his uniform and his usual knee piece on the left knee.

- The #Patriots and #Buccaneers are wearing shorts, shells and helmets today. A lighter day of practice expected, mostly walk-through stuff.

- Brady is warming up on the sideline, throwing passes. As mentioned, he's wearing his brace on left knee. He normally only wears it in games.

- The crowd cheered and gave a round of applause for Brady as he got on the field.

- Tuesday and Wednesday were good team drills and scrimmages. Today the tempo will be slowed down and focus on details before the game tomorrow.

- Revis was in uniform participating Tuesday, sat out yesterday and now he is back in positional drills today.

- (Pre-injury) Some believed Brady would play good amount tomorrow, some thought barely at all. I think he will play two series like last week.

- Gronkowski strolls onto the practice field wearing shorts and a t-shirt. He has looked a little bigger the past few days than 2 weeks ago.

- Much slower pace for practice today than the past few days.

Comments from Stephen Holder, Tampa Bay Times:

- Greg Schiano says he and Belichick stressed to DL to run BY the quarterback and not AT him. But Clayborn had Solder between him and Brady.

- I don't believe that Clayborn did anything wrong. Playing hard.

- With quotes from Schiano and Clayborn... Tom Brady goes down in Bucs-Patriots workout
Tom Brady goes down in Bucs-Patriots workout | Tampa Bay Times

- (Q.: I keep hearing that Bowers isn't going to start but who would overtake him? Is Means good enough?) -- This is not true. There's no official change.

- I hear that this has been thrown around by some. Basically Schiano is making Bowers prove it. But he doesn't have a lot of options either.

- (Q.: Did Nicks practice the last two days? How did he look? This is something that should be getting covered more.) -- Carl Nicks is getting there. I believe he's going to play Friday night.

- It's day before a game here in Foxborough so Bucs and Patriots practice a little less eventful. Players not in pads, either.




Comments from Roy Cummings, Tampa Tribune:

- Tom Brady isn't letting his sore knee get in the way of charity work. He's on the Gillette field playing catch in a charity endeavor.

- The Patriot Nation's long national nightmare appears to be over. QB Tom Brady is back at practice and not limping.​




Comment from Mary Paoletti, CSNNE:

- Revis participating in position drills after sitting out all day yesterday.

Does anybody know why McCourty has been wearing the red jersey?

To anybody who has been at practice, how does Devin look? Does he look limited in any way?

Didn't look limited to me on Tuesday
 
I'm reading that the Pats placed OL Tyronne Green on IR.
Also OL Kevin Haslam was released.

Backup offensive line depth gets thinner once again -- unless of course the moves mean they have signed a couple new OL.

More comments from Ceese Carcieri:


- I'm not liking Mallett's over the shoulder throws today...

- Goal line work for the Pats. Tight end work in the red zone.

- Talib just picked off Brady in the red zone drill.

- Huge ovation for Gronk as he comes out on the field. He is sweating. Must have been working out.

- Different punt and kick situations going on now. The Pats and Bucs have combined.

- Aaron Dobson with another beautiful catch. Closest thing Brady is ever going to get to Moss.

- Bill Belichick is privately talking to wide out Danny Amendola. Kick return drills.

- Josh Allen looks really good. I wouldn't be surprised if he becomes are punter this year.

- 11 v 11 walk thru. Pats offense vs Bucs defense. Rest of the team is watching.

- Zach Sudfeld being targeted a lot in this 11 v 11 walk thru. One of the young receivers.

Shoulder surgery prior to TC. They're probably just being extra cautious with him.
 
More comments from Mike Leslie, WHDH Channel 7:


- ICYMI: Tom Brady is on the practice field. Wearing a brace on his left knee.

- Yes, that's Tom Brady's name listed as a starter for tomorrow night's #Pats/#Bucs game. Unofficially, of course.

note: it also lists Rob Gronkowski and Michael Jenkins as starters for tomorrow's game ... :confused4:

- Big crowd on hand, to check on #Pats QB Tom Brady. Many relieved folks, seeing that he's fine.

- Biggest media presence at #Pats camp since, possibly, day 1.

- #Brady participating in 7-on-7 drills, #Pats vs. #Bucs

- And #Brady immediately hits Danny Amendola with a pretty pass to the far corner. Just barely out of bounds, though.

- #Brady looks fleet-of-foot so far. Bouncing, light on the balls of his feet. Sharp.

- #Brady seems insistent on making sure no one doubts he's okay. Hits Dobson perfectly, back corner.

- #Brady then slings one to Zach Sudfeld, back of the end zone. Dropped, but a strong, accurate throw.

- Long and short of it... #Brady looks absolutely fine.

- 11-on-11 drills.... #Brady on the field. Lets hope for no bull rushes. #Pats #Bucs
 
^ Kamar Aiken is so important for tomorrow's game that he's listed twice. lol.

Even though Gronk's name is on the list, I doubt he'll play, but I guess we'll see.

That thing is full of typos. It lists Jenkins as a starter and he was just cut today. No way Gronk plays tomorrow.

I agree, Gronk hasn't practiced, and I don't see them rushing him in and risking him for a meaningless pre-season game.
