Banta Cain, Alexander and Thomas all at practice

FOXBOROUGH -- Adalius Thomas, Tully Banta-Cain and Eric Alexander all were at practice this afternoon, according to Globe reporter Michael Vega.

The presence of Banta-Cain and Alexander seems to confirm that both players have re-signed hours after being released.

Receiver Brandon Tate and tackle Mark LeVoir also were both present at practice. Tate was working with the punt return unit, while LeVoir was with the offensive line.

More to come ...

Well obviously, Thomas wasn't being traded. I'm pumped to see Tate's time has come.

Hopefully AD and BB are on the same page now.

Let the Brandon Tate era begin...I will say that it's pretty impressive for a guy who blew out his knee last Oct to be on an NFL practice field a year later. That tells me a little something about him. Good luck kid!

Brandon Tate returns kicks during team walkthrough; Sammy Morris and Matt Light among the missing
Posted by Karen Guregian at 3:10 pm

Colleague Ian Rapoport was out on the lower practice field to take in today’s walkthrough practice. Both Tully Banta-Cain and Eric Alexander were present, suggesting they had both re-signed contracts after being released.

Also present were rookie wide receiver Brandon Tate and offensive lineman Mark LeVoir, who are both eligible to come off the reserve inactive list. Given it was a walkthough, it’s not clear if they were officially activiated, or not. The team has 21 days to decide on their status.

Linebacker Adalius Thomas, who was a healthy scratch for Sunday’s blowout of the Titans, was present.

Running back Sammy Morris, who injured a knee during his first carry of the game, was not out on the field, nor was left tackle Matt Light, who missed the game with a knee injury.

JMO, but it says more of our **** up with Galloway than a credit to him. Ofcourse if he can become a stud, I'll gladly change my mind :D

Disagree. They wouldnt shove the kid on the practice field if he wasnt physically or mentally ready- regardless of the Galloway situation.

Is BB there, or is he too busy frantically looking for a third receiver?

Heard Patriots are not going to make any trades. Levoir and tate will be taking over for matthews Galloway

Practice means nothing. If he's capable of practicing and learning things for the future, why not have him practice rather than have him sit and rot for a year? Galloway is gone, you need someone for that roster spot. I don't see too many other options BB has other than to try out Tate.
