MORSE: Second Patriots Open OTA, Blast from the Past, and Comings and Goings

This was the second OTA open to the media. The next is on Friday.

Bill Belichick stated that the Monday OTA was very good and that they would be scaling back the speed at this OTA. Additionally, quite a few players were given the day off. This included all the veteran three Wide Receivers (Thornton, Smith-Schuster, Bourne). The highlight of this light practice was the first look at 1st round pick Christian Gonzalez.
