Summary
Five straight padded sessions flipped New England camp momentum, with the offense stringing together three standout days after the defense controlled early team periods.
Drake Maye completed 38 of 49 passes in those practices, leaning heavily on A.J. Brown, who caught 18 balls and stood out in the red zone.
Gabe Jacas, the No. 55 pick, returned Saturday after contract delays and a stint on the NFI list, adding another piece to an edge rotation led lately by Elijah Ponder and Bradyn Swinson.
Kayshon Boutte reportedly requested a trade earlier this offseason, but he and DeMario Douglas still worked with the first team as Romeo Doubs built chemistry with Maye.
One practice remains before joint work with Indianapolis on Aug. 11 and the preseason opener on Aug. 13, giving both units their first outside test after trading camp wins.
