FOXBORO — The final scene of the Patriots’ three-day minicamp yesterday was emblematic of the week.
Quarterback Tom Brady and wide receiver Brandin Cooks, two of the final players on the field, strolled away together, deep in conversation and dissecting their string of performances.
This was a strong way to cap a dynamic stretch for the potentially explosive tandem. Cooks caught a team-high eight passes from Brady during the trio of practices, and the Patriots’ marquee offseason acquisition looks like he’ll have no issues adding a special element to the offense.
Cooks wowed his coaches and teammates with his on-field explosion.
