Snowy practice

FOXBOROUGH -- The Patriots are holding their afternoon practice inside Gillette Stadium today and it is snowing as the team works out. Players are in sweatpants, light shoulder pads and helmets.
DL Mike Wright and OL Billy Yates were the players not present for the media-access portion of the practice, which included stretching, special teams work and one positional drill.
Players seemed to enjoy being out in the snow, as there was plenty of chatter on the field. New TE Stephen Spach probably caught the attention of teammates by wearing shorts.
QB Matt Cassel, WR Chad Jackson, OL Ryan O'Callaghan and LB Chad Brown wore black jerseys, as did practice squad players Ray Ventone (safety) and Tim Mixon (cornerback). That signifies they were named practice players of the week for their work leading up to the Steelers' game.
