via Reiss this time we definitely know it is the final public practice until next year:
From Reiss' usual Sunday column (see Two years into post-Gronk life, void at tight end still looms for Patriots) 2-3 things of note:
He sees a vet TE, depth at the interior DL and WR among the most likely spots that the team might run into trouble.
With the TE it is about having a veteran option in addition to Asiasi and Keene. I think it speaks volumes that he doesn't even think of mentioning Izzo here.
When it comes to DL his point is not only about having more depth in case something happens to Allen or Guy but that they have looked generally not very great against the run: "the run D has been gashed at times in camp".
Finally in terms of WR it is more about missing players that can separate (i.e. more of the same as 2019).
As usual I recommend reading through the entire piece because there is much more interesting stuff (e.g. he says that Harry might be the player most benefiting from Cam as QB) inside that I don't just want to copy and paste in here and take clicks away from Reiss.
