I think there was some team/agent gamesmenship going on.Injury history w the reports we've heard mean anything involving his knees are serious business.
It's Aug & it's already an issue.
Plus the extra body we'll have to carry if it lingers into the season.
Sensing a trend with UGA football players with pre-existing knee injuries...

That's the interesting question from a roster perspective. If he comes back to practice between the 2nd & 3rd pre-season games (as per the "10-day" projection), and then gets in for a few reps against the Giants' scrubs, we'll kinda have our answer.
OTOH, if he doesn't participate in more than a couple of the remaining practices and doesn't play in the pre-season finale, the Pats may elect to go the IR-return route (six weeks) rather than carry him on the bench, especially with Edelman missing the first four games.
So A lot of brady to gronk in September I suppose.
Is anything "minor" w his knees though?

James White is way under the radar this camp ...
Sucks don't it?
Amazing how they arrive at a prediction of him missing 3.4 games this season with a 67-percent chance of being injured.So he had fluid drained from his knee ...
They will waste a few weeks then we'll hear he's getting surgery to have his knee cleaned up.
I hope they take the cautious route ... he's had ACL and knee strain ... something else going on in there.
Sony Michel injury history and analysis
There's only one question to ask when you have a one-legged running back. What is Sony Michel's favorite restaurant?
IHOP.

I forget the rules. If for some reason he can't be there to open the reason do we need to carry him on the 53?
IDK what designation they can give him if any sense he was at practice. The could IR with designation to return but it doesn't seem like it will be that long.
Not good when you already need to have your knee drained as a rookie.
