No Brady coming out for warmups with the quarterbacks. Just Lindley and Garoppolo.

I totally forgot Vereen would be on the field tonight. Best of luck to him!

IDK....I've never hated the Giants...regardless of the Super Bowls..the same with Buffalo. They have always been ok in my book. On the other hand I've always hated the Jets.

Jimmy G..."accidentally" tombstone Lindley. No one will be the wiser.

I was gonna say. I've never had a problem with the Giants...even with the Super Bowls. Buffalo the same. They are ok. The Jets on the other hand have a special level of hatred in my heart that may never be replaced.

Bill Belichick describes the last week as a "split squad" situation -- some players prep for Steelers, others for preseason finale.

No surprise here....Kraft likes being stabbed in the back. He will take the side of his billionaire friends no matter what they say about his team

From someone at Gillette "Jimmy G and Ryan Lindley just sprinted out to the field in full uniform. Looks like Jimmy G will play."

This will be Travaris Cadet and Eric Martin's preseason debuts for the Patriots.

I hope Cadet is able to play tonight and make a case for himself being part of this team. I still feel he's one of the most talented plays on this roster right now.

@jeffphowe is this weird that Brady isn't there? At least dressed down

Jeff Howe retweeted Devin Bergin
He's probably leaving a bag of poop on Goodell's steps at the moment. Tough to be in two places at once.
