The Patriots’ offseason workouts are well underway.
New England kicked off its slate of organized team activities (OTAs) on Monday — a four-week program where 11-on-11, 7-on-7, and 9-on-7 drills are permitted.
While there is no contact during OTAs, they offer a chance for teams to begin to set the foundation for their roster before the prep work for a new season begins in earnest in late July during training camp.
“This is a non-contact camp and time of year, but I think the receivers and the DBs can certainly look to mirror, shadow, react and still go make plays on the football and try to stay up,” Patriots head coach Mike Vrabel said of how players can make the most of OTAs.
