The Patriots went through their final practice session on Friday, and quarterback Tom Brady once again showed no ill-effects from yesterday's car accident and took part in the team's workout.
The Patriots worked out in shorts and shells on the main Gillette Stadium field, and according to published reports participation seemed much better than it had been, with only CB Terrence Wheatley (foot), OL Nick Kaczur (back) and OL Quinn Ojinnaka (suspension) reportedly missing from practice.
The team will open the season this Sunday against the Bengals at Gillette Stadium.
