The New England Patriots<\/strong><\/a> opened up their 2022 training camp on Wednesday at the Gillette Stadium practice fields.<\/p>\n

As is the case traditionally in the first week, no players were in pads but there was still plenty of energy to go around.<\/p>\n

Prior to practice, head coach Bill Belichick stated the day’s focus would be in the red area, and with it, newcomer DeVante Parker gained the most attention.<\/p>\n

Parker hauled in three touchdowns on the day, two during red zone drills, and one of which was within a tight window between multiple defenders. After one touchdown, Parker went on to celebrate in a fired-up manner with fans leading to some raucous applause.<\/p>\n

The defense meanwhile had to do pushups at the end of practice.<\/p>\n

Away from the players, one notable coaching observation was Matt Patricia holding<\/a> a walkie-talkie as an apparent offensive play-caller. The Patriots presently do not have an “official” offensive coordinator.<\/p>\n

You can check out some of the best sights and sounds shared on social media from day one below.<\/p>\n
