Obviously, we hope to see Jacas, Landry, and Gonzalez in camp and participation. But who else? Muma is at the top of the list for Reiss.

FROM REISS
ESPN’s Mike Reiss shared some of his thoughts on the Patriots during a recent article. He highlighted five players who could make a splash during training camp later this summer.
Linebacker Chad Muma is the first player on Reiss’s list, and the most notable name overall.
“The 6-foot-3, 239-pound Muma was signed off the Colts’ practice squad last December due to injuries,” Reiss wrote. “He played in the final three regular-season games and four playoff games and carried that momentum into last spring. A six-year veteran out of Wyoming who is now on his third NFL team, Muma was playing on the top punt-protection unit this spring, and in one mandatory minicamp practice was the first to rotate in on defense behind starters Robert Spillane and Christian Elliss.”
The Jaguars drafted Muma in the third round of the 2022 NFL Draft. Muma was a decent role player in Jacksonville, but never ascended to become a consistent starter. That might not happen in New England either, but Muma could still provide valuable depth behind Spillane and Elliss. He could also play significant snaps on special teams.
Ask a Pro: "We're 63. Will Our $1.7M Last 30+ Years in Retirement?"

Reiss also named running back Terrell Jennings, center Jacob Rizy, defensive tackle Eric Gregory, and outside linebacker Xavier Holmes as potential breakout candidates.
It will be exciting to watch how these players perform during training camp practices later this month.
Patriots training camp kicks off on July 21st when rookies will report for the start of mandatory practices. They will be joined by veterans on July 24th, with the first full team practice on July 25th.
