Overview

  • Four veterans—Mack Hollins, Austin Hooper, Vederian Lowe and Jahlani Tavai—opened camp on the active/PUP list, making them ineligible for on-field drills.
  • Cornerback Carlton Davis III, safety Josh Minkins and wide receiver Jeremiah Webb began camp on the active/NFI list, barring them from practice and preseason games until cleared.
  • PUP and NFI designations allow sidelined players to join team meetings and strength sessions but leave their preseason availability uncertain.
  • Stefon Diggs was not placed on any injury list and remains ahead of schedule in his ACL rehabilitation, eyeing a Week 1 return.
  • Full-pad practices kick off July 23 as the Patriots prepare to cut their roster from 90 to 53 players before the regular season.
