PATRIOTS TRAINING CAMP Patriots Training Camp 8-8-2023

Dealing with injury.

That seems to be the case, and it could very well be something relatively minor, that a rookie who is trying to make a team, for instance, would be playing through (or Brown during the regular season) but they are being very conservative with him, knowing his injury history and recognizing how important he is to their success this year.

Posted in the Flowers thread, but also putting here since it's news from today - Flowers signed this morning, but immediately goes on PUP list. Imagine he is probably gonna start the year on PUP to save a roster spot.

If he doesn’t participate in a single practice for the next 10 weeks, there would have been no point in signing him.

Are you sure? Looks to me like he could go onto the regular-season PUP list only if he doesn't practice in camp, and could be activated starting at game 7.

What is the difference between PUP list and IR in the NFL?

PUP stands for Physically Unable to Perform, while IR stands for Injured Reserve. Numerous players will receive these labels before the start of the NFL regular season as rosters

There are certain players that are just CATALYST type players. Nate Ebner was one for the Men's 7-on-7 Rugby. Bourne was that for the Pats in 2021. Good things just happened when Bourne was on the field.

I don't believe that either Boutte or Nixon are going to beat him out.

Over 800 yds playing only one third of the offensive snaps in 2021. Amen

He can still be present in the building in a mentor role as he gets into shape and then become active for the back half of the season.

It's kinda sad that I'm excited to see it, but... the Jets cut Yodny Cajuste today... he might be worth calling back for a few weeks.

LOL I felt the same.

How many teams have cap space and are willing to expend 5 million on wr3 ? Bourne trade might not be realistic.

As of today, 18 teams, not counting the Patriots, have $12 million or more of cap space.

Any acquiring team could convert $4 m of salary to a bonus, add a void year, and a $5 million cap figure becomes $3 m in 2023.

There are ways to do it. Cap room is not the problem. Finding another team willing to give up a draft pick and be willing to pay Bourne $5 m is the problem.

You posted that in response to a tweet saying he was 2-0 in one on ones?????
I don’t see how he is far behind Parker or Bourne. He missed time, it’s not that big a deal.

Yes I did.

One practice does not change the other 10 he has been invisible in.

 

[RobertWeathers]

Don't forget Boutte and Nixon.

Boutte has been coming on.

 

[Hawaiipatsfan2]

Boutte has been coming on.

We can only hope. Him and Douglas becoming top 30 receivers would change the direction of this team over the next 4 years significantly. They both have the potential.

Demario has more moves then ex-lax

 

[mike_usagisan]

Roll with two tight ends on the 53.
If you can’t extend Bourne trade him to keep Nixon and Boutte and have 6 WRs.

I don’t think we can roll with only 2 TEs. We desperately need a blocking one to help with our shaky OTs.

The Jets were as desperate at OL as we were. If they cut him, I’m not sure we want him back.

This video looks very promising. Our new Edelman?
