5 Patriots who’ve impressed — and 5 who haven’t — ahead of roster cuts

COMMENTARY

With no preseason NFL games this summer, it can be easy to lose sight of the arrival of the regular season. With a shortened training camp, the arrival of real NFL football has flown under the radar.

But the NFL waits for no one, and we are now less than one week away from the first game of the regular season, Texans vs. Chiefs, and nine days away from the Patriots’ season opener, when they take on the Dolphins at Gillette Stadium.

NFL teams have until this Saturday at 4 p.m. to cut their training camp rosters from 80 players to 53 players.
