WEBVTT - Training Camp-Cast 7/24:  Day 1 Recap, Standouts and Top Plays

0:00:00.440 --> 0:00:03.239
<v Speaker 1>This is the Patriots Training Camp Cast.

0:00:06.960 --> 0:00:09.560
<v Speaker 2>The Patriots Training Camp Cast is your source for all

0:00:09.600 --> 0:00:11.320
<v Speaker 2>the news from Patriots training Camp.

0:00:11.400 --> 0:00:13.280
<v Speaker 3>Well, I do still watch the news.

0:00:13.400 --> 0:00:16.200
<v Speaker 4>Practice is over, but the writers of Patriots dot com

0:00:16.239 --> 0:00:18.400
<v Speaker 4>have you covered? What did I miss yesterday? Now here

0:00:18.400 --> 0:00:21.799
<v Speaker 4>to review today's practice the writers of Patriots dot com.

0:00:22.400 --> 0:00:25.680
<v Speaker 2>All right, welcome in to our very first Patriots Training

0:00:25.760 --> 0:00:27.200
<v Speaker 2>Camp Cast at twenty twenty four.

0:00:27.240 --> 0:00:29.520
<v Speaker 3>It's Mike do So, Paul Parrel. Paul, thanks for joining me.

0:00:29.520 --> 0:00:33.040
<v Speaker 4>Hey, thanks for having me on your little camp cast.

0:00:33.320 --> 0:00:35.559
<v Speaker 4>I guess what is this year? Five twenty four for me,

0:00:35.640 --> 0:00:39.080
<v Speaker 4>but twenty six overall. I think it's twenty fourth doing

0:00:39.080 --> 0:00:39.960
<v Speaker 4>a camp cast.

0:00:40.360 --> 0:00:42.160
<v Speaker 2>Well, here we are, and we, you know, got going

0:00:42.159 --> 0:00:43.880
<v Speaker 2>today with the Patriots on the field, kind of like

0:00:43.960 --> 0:00:46.480
<v Speaker 2>practice hour and a half session Paul little Yeah, sorter

0:00:46.560 --> 0:00:47.519
<v Speaker 2>than we're kind of used to here.

0:00:47.600 --> 0:00:49.440
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, And you know, Jard Mayo talked a little bit

0:00:49.440 --> 0:00:52.360
<v Speaker 4>about that on Tuesday, that he might fluctuate some of

0:00:52.400 --> 0:00:54.240
<v Speaker 4>these times. And I think that the sort of the

0:00:54.320 --> 0:00:56.520
<v Speaker 4>ramp up time, you know, I think they have some

0:00:56.560 --> 0:00:58.120
<v Speaker 4>work that they probably want to get done, a set

0:00:58.160 --> 0:01:00.920
<v Speaker 4>amount of you know, execution, and they want to see

0:01:01.880 --> 0:01:03.920
<v Speaker 4>I think these first couple of practices will be a

0:01:03.960 --> 0:01:06.640
<v Speaker 4>little shorter and then they'll gradually ramp it up. And

0:01:06.959 --> 0:01:09.440
<v Speaker 4>I did think it was interesting before practice started today.

0:01:10.440 --> 0:01:13.280
<v Speaker 4>They're eligible to be in pads after five days, so

0:01:13.319 --> 0:01:17.120
<v Speaker 4>that would be Monday. Girod sort of indicated it might

0:01:17.160 --> 0:01:20.200
<v Speaker 4>be around this time next week, so maybe, you know,

0:01:20.240 --> 0:01:22.160
<v Speaker 4>a little bit later than that when they were in

0:01:22.200 --> 0:01:24.440
<v Speaker 4>full pads for the first time. But we're getting ahead

0:01:24.440 --> 0:01:25.320
<v Speaker 4>of ourselves a little bit.

0:01:25.400 --> 0:01:27.080
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, we are a little bit, but you know, not

0:01:27.120 --> 0:01:29.520
<v Speaker 2>the most competitive practices you might have seen one day one,

0:01:29.640 --> 0:01:31.959
<v Speaker 2>kind of a continuation of OTAs in mini camp. But

0:01:32.000 --> 0:01:34.199
<v Speaker 2>still some guys that showed up a couple good plays,

0:01:34.240 --> 0:01:36.240
<v Speaker 2>and I want to start with Jalen Rager, who had

0:01:36.480 --> 0:01:39.280
<v Speaker 2>really nice one handed catch down the field, had another

0:01:39.319 --> 0:01:40.600
<v Speaker 2>catch later in practice.

0:01:41.000 --> 0:01:42.960
<v Speaker 3>You know, it was kind of productive in OTAs two.

0:01:43.120 --> 0:01:45.240
<v Speaker 2>Not a guy that's on the top of everyone's mind,

0:01:45.280 --> 0:01:47.440
<v Speaker 2>but a guy that's just continuing to show up here

0:01:47.440 --> 0:01:48.080
<v Speaker 2>in the offseason.

0:01:48.160 --> 0:01:49.800
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, I feel like they have a lot of very

0:01:49.840 --> 0:01:53.360
<v Speaker 4>similar kind of players, not necessarily in skill set, because

0:01:53.400 --> 0:01:55.639
<v Speaker 4>I think Rager is a little bit longer and faster

0:01:55.800 --> 0:01:58.520
<v Speaker 4>than most of the other guys, but they have a

0:01:58.560 --> 0:02:01.559
<v Speaker 4>lot of sort of middling kind of receivers. I think

0:02:01.720 --> 0:02:06.280
<v Speaker 4>Rager has certainly done a nice job of separating himself

0:02:06.320 --> 0:02:09.160
<v Speaker 4>from the pack in that regard. I thought Juju Smith

0:02:09.160 --> 0:02:11.680
<v Speaker 4>Schuster also showed up a little bit today with that

0:02:11.800 --> 0:02:15.239
<v Speaker 4>nice deep crosser. All of these passes we should we

0:02:15.280 --> 0:02:20.200
<v Speaker 4>should add from Drake may So. I thought that was

0:02:20.240 --> 0:02:22.840
<v Speaker 4>a good sign to sort of see him get the

0:02:22.840 --> 0:02:25.480
<v Speaker 4>ball downfield a little bit in the athleticism on display

0:02:25.520 --> 0:02:27.080
<v Speaker 4>a little bit. But you're right, I don't want to

0:02:27.320 --> 0:02:31.320
<v Speaker 4>get anybody excited, not overly competitive, you know, in shorts

0:02:31.320 --> 0:02:32.240
<v Speaker 4>and helmets today.

0:02:32.320 --> 0:02:34.200
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, so you know, a couple of housekeeping notes because

0:02:34.200 --> 0:02:36.320
<v Speaker 2>you're obviously trying to read between the lines a little bit,

0:02:36.400 --> 0:02:38.400
<v Speaker 2>you know, just some highlights, you know, for me, Kyle

0:02:38.440 --> 0:02:41.080
<v Speaker 2>Dugart coming up with a tipball interception, he continues to

0:02:41.200 --> 0:02:42.440
<v Speaker 2>kind of be around the ball. That's kind of a

0:02:42.520 --> 0:02:45.640
<v Speaker 2>Kyle Dugger play, you know, not necessarily him jumping the route,

0:02:45.639 --> 0:02:47.600
<v Speaker 2>but Johnny on the spot right place by time.

0:02:47.600 --> 0:02:50.440
<v Speaker 4>It's exactly what your boy, Jabil Pepper said after practice.

0:02:50.480 --> 0:02:52.239
<v Speaker 4>I don't know how we do it, you know, He's

0:02:52.320 --> 0:02:54.519
<v Speaker 4>just always where we're supposed to be. And they Yeah,

0:02:54.720 --> 0:02:57.640
<v Speaker 4>the defensive backs have a pretty friendly competition with those

0:02:57.720 --> 0:02:59.960
<v Speaker 4>kinds of plays. Uh So he was a little upset

0:03:00.120 --> 0:03:03.000
<v Speaker 4>that he's already behind, but yeah, it was really nice.

0:03:03.320 --> 0:03:07.040
<v Speaker 4>The play was actually made by Jonathan Jones, good trail coverage,

0:03:07.040 --> 0:03:09.400
<v Speaker 4>got the hand in in front of the intended target,

0:03:10.000 --> 0:03:12.240
<v Speaker 4>ball goes in the air and right to Kyle Dugar.

0:03:12.320 --> 0:03:14.919
<v Speaker 4>That was from Brissett. Probably a pass that Brissett was

0:03:14.960 --> 0:03:17.800
<v Speaker 4>a little late with. You know, again, you know, the

0:03:17.840 --> 0:03:21.920
<v Speaker 4>timing not expected to be at regular season pace on

0:03:21.960 --> 0:03:23.840
<v Speaker 4>the first day of camp, but yeah, good to see

0:03:23.880 --> 0:03:25.200
<v Speaker 4>Dougar around the ball as usual.

0:03:25.280 --> 0:03:26.000
<v Speaker 3>Little housekeeping.

0:03:26.120 --> 0:03:27.600
<v Speaker 2>Saw a lot of Michael and when you continues to

0:03:27.600 --> 0:03:29.280
<v Speaker 2>be at right guard, you know, the lion is a

0:03:29.280 --> 0:03:31.760
<v Speaker 2>big concern for Patriots fans. Wanted to know how that's

0:03:31.800 --> 0:03:33.880
<v Speaker 2>all going to shake out. We saw, you know, they're

0:03:33.919 --> 0:03:35.520
<v Speaker 2>working on the run game a little bit. They're more

0:03:35.560 --> 0:03:36.960
<v Speaker 2>in the middle of the field, not the red zone,

0:03:37.000 --> 0:03:39.200
<v Speaker 2>Paul like we've get used to im means those old

0:03:39.240 --> 0:03:41.200
<v Speaker 2>Patriots practices. It felt like, hey, we're right in the

0:03:41.200 --> 0:03:44.080
<v Speaker 2>red zone right away, opening it up maybe a little bit.

0:03:44.120 --> 0:03:46.200
<v Speaker 2>We were speculating just allow on the offense maybe to

0:03:46.240 --> 0:03:48.360
<v Speaker 2>connect on some plays, but I thought it was fine.

0:03:48.360 --> 0:03:50.440
<v Speaker 3>Today there was nothing. You know, Rigger made a couple catches,

0:03:50.440 --> 0:03:52.600
<v Speaker 3>but overall it felt like the first day of camp.

0:03:52.640 --> 0:03:54.400
<v Speaker 2>They're feeling it out. There's not really a lot of

0:03:54.440 --> 0:03:55.480
<v Speaker 2>fireworks to write home about.

0:03:55.560 --> 0:03:59.320
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, and we should say it went Brisset, may Zappi,

0:03:59.560 --> 0:04:02.320
<v Speaker 4>Milton and that was pretty much the rotation that we

0:04:02.400 --> 0:04:06.839
<v Speaker 4>ended the spring with that continued today. And you're right,

0:04:07.320 --> 0:04:09.240
<v Speaker 4>I do think I didn't even know what to do

0:04:09.280 --> 0:04:11.119
<v Speaker 4>with myself, you know, not starting in the red zone,

0:04:11.160 --> 0:04:14.320
<v Speaker 4>because I'm just it's so ingrained in my mind that

0:04:14.320 --> 0:04:17.360
<v Speaker 4>that's the way that Bill always did it. They started,

0:04:17.560 --> 0:04:20.000
<v Speaker 4>you know, the twenty or thirty, you know, early down,

0:04:20.040 --> 0:04:21.920
<v Speaker 4>a lot of early down work, you know, and you

0:04:21.960 --> 0:04:24.080
<v Speaker 4>saw what they want to do. You saw that the

0:04:24.120 --> 0:04:26.880
<v Speaker 4>Alex Van Pelt offense wants to be that sort of

0:04:27.800 --> 0:04:31.080
<v Speaker 4>zone stretch kind of plays where you know, it's it's

0:04:31.360 --> 0:04:35.200
<v Speaker 4>extended handoffs, hard play, action, boots off of that. That's

0:04:35.240 --> 0:04:37.000
<v Speaker 4>how they're looking to get explosive plays.

0:04:37.960 --> 0:04:38.680
<v Speaker 3>So some of.

0:04:38.640 --> 0:04:41.000
<v Speaker 4>Those things you start to see the seeds get planted

0:04:41.000 --> 0:04:43.240
<v Speaker 4>today a little bit, and it was different not being

0:04:43.279 --> 0:04:43.919
<v Speaker 4>in the red zone.

0:04:43.960 --> 0:04:44.320
<v Speaker 3>All right.

0:04:44.320 --> 0:04:48.040
<v Speaker 2>Well, new season, New studio, new head coach, new quarterback,

0:04:48.200 --> 0:04:48.599
<v Speaker 2>A lot.

0:04:48.480 --> 0:04:51.120
<v Speaker 3>Of new net's going on here, Paula. We're just getting started.

0:04:50.920 --> 0:04:53.600
<v Speaker 4>So real quick. Yeah, just you know, just to continue.

0:04:53.720 --> 0:04:57.400
<v Speaker 4>The attendance was really good today. The Patriots placed five

0:04:57.440 --> 0:05:00.240
<v Speaker 4>guys on lists, four on PUP and that would be

0:05:01.080 --> 0:05:05.000
<v Speaker 4>Cole Strange, Kendrick Bourne, Jake Andrews, and Scioni Taki Taki.

0:05:05.320 --> 0:05:08.240
<v Speaker 4>Those four players did not practice today, are on PUP

0:05:08.520 --> 0:05:12.120
<v Speaker 4>and Antonio Gibson starts on the Non Football Injury List

0:05:12.279 --> 0:05:15.760
<v Speaker 4>n FI. So other than that, the other eighty five

0:05:15.800 --> 0:05:18.880
<v Speaker 4>players were out there and accounted for. We did see

0:05:18.920 --> 0:05:21.880
<v Speaker 4>Matthew Judon, we did see Devon gotcha, and we did

0:05:21.920 --> 0:05:24.560
<v Speaker 4>see them taking part in some of the eleven on

0:05:24.640 --> 0:05:26.920
<v Speaker 4>eleven stuff that they did, and that to me was

0:05:26.960 --> 0:05:30.440
<v Speaker 4>a little different than last year with Judon specifically, who

0:05:30.560 --> 0:05:32.680
<v Speaker 4>was obviously upset with his contract at this time a

0:05:32.760 --> 0:05:35.400
<v Speaker 4>year ago and sort of chose to the hold in

0:05:35.680 --> 0:05:37.960
<v Speaker 4>kind of thing. We didn't see any signs of that today.

0:05:38.120 --> 0:05:40.120
<v Speaker 4>We'll see what happens next week when the pads are on. Yeah,

0:05:40.120 --> 0:05:42.000
<v Speaker 4>Pop Douglas seeming to do a little bit of rehab work.

0:05:42.040 --> 0:05:44.039
<v Speaker 4>Maybe two wasn't heavily involved, just something to keep an

0:05:44.040 --> 0:05:46.440
<v Speaker 4>eye on, but that's gonna do us do it for

0:05:46.560 --> 0:05:48.920
<v Speaker 4>us for day one here Patriots Training Camp Cast.

0:05:48.960 --> 0:05:51.080
<v Speaker 2>Of course, what have we got? Twelve more practices to go,

0:05:51.160 --> 0:05:52.960
<v Speaker 2>so we're just getting started here. We hope you guys
