Former Patriots Tackle Trent Brown visits practice

[BTTA]

I'm curious as to why the Patriots haven't entertained Wynn yet at guard considering that's where he played there in college.

I'm curious about how you are aware that they haven't?

Just found out he started a game at guard last year, did not know that or it totally slipped my mind.

What I meant is it seemed that Wynn had only played tackle for us and I can’t recall hearing about him ever lining up at guard. Appears he did start at LG vs SF last year.

So half right, half wrong - Trent Brown went the whole game at RT. Didn't think he'd go from zero to 60, but was correct in pooh-poohing he'd take over for Wynn.

Did Brown play the entire game? I thought I might've seen Onwenu at RT sometimes, besides playing in some of their Jumbo packages...

Brown got some breaks. But did not miss a lot of snaps iirc.

Played 69% of the snaps. Need some ice on the calf and GrubHub brought him a pizza.

I'll order the pizza for him if he plays that way every game and we win.

If he plays that way every game it certainly helps our chances of winning

Brown is clearly an upgrade over any tackle the Pats (and most other teams) have.

I doubt on a short week the re-shuffle the O-line, I anticipate the same line from yesterday Thursday, but maybe during the bye week, the Pats could shift to

LT-Brown
LG-Mason
C-Andrews
RG-Wynn
RT Owenu

I’m begging him to stay healthy.

No stubbed toes, no paper cuts on his finger, no drinking his milk too fast and getting a stomach ache. Wrap this man in bubble wrap and get him out there.

Yes - I missed Brown coming out to close the first half for a series and obviously garbage time when almost half the OL was replaced. He played significantly more than I thought though so still off on my guess as to his usage.
