Jc Jackson:

Sony Michel continues to get a lot of looks in the passing game. During the 7-on-7 work, Brady went in Michel’s direction twice in the first four snaps.

“It’s nice when you have a coach that sees you as a human being, and you’re able to go talk to him, and you’re able to go take care of it,” Bennett said

In other side sessions, Tom Brady worked with Harry and Jakobi Meyers while Hoyer worked with James White and Damien Harris

It was a busy day at Gillette Stadium as fans and media were on hand to get their first glimpse as the team took the practice field Thursday and here’s a full rundown of what we learned from the session.

Berrios went all out for a quick out pass from Brady, diving for the ball, which got a fist-bump from the QB when they got back to the huddle.

Berrios has to stay healthy and on the field. He had a pretty impressive spring and everything is falling in place for him to carve out a niche for himself

Jackson notched three interceptions and opposing QBs had just a 42.0 passer rating when targeting him. Some NFL insiders believe he has All-Pro potential

According to PFF, Jackson allowed only 22 receptions on 42 targets for a combined 262 yards as well as zero touchdowns to go along with his three picks

Edelman, Harry and Dorsett are locks. Meyers with his size and hands makes it yet another year with an UDFA making the roster out of training camp.

“I had teammates that help you, and then you had teammates that didn’t,” Edelman said after practice on Wednesday. “I like to be known as a guy that helped you

Hoyer connected with Braxton Berrios on a deep pass down the right sideline. Berrios had to dive for it and came up with a fantastic catch

Even Bill Belichick, normally tight-lipped about rookies had this to say about Harry: “It’s been good, he’s worked hard. He’s smart and works hard.”

On Sunday night, New England Patriots tight end Rob Gronkowski formally announced over Instagram that he will be retiring from the NFL after nine professional seasons.

“For a team to accomplish their goal, everybody’s got to give up a little bit of their individuality.” Bill Belichick said.
