FOXBORO, Mass. — New Englanders, “don’t waste another minute on your cryin’.” The 2020 version of the Patriots might not be the same well-oiled machine you’re accustomed to watching.
Some growing pains will be unavoidable for a team that suddenly lacks Tom Brady, Dont’a Hightower, Patrick Chung, Marcus Cannon, Kyle Van Noy, Jamie Collins, Duron Harmon, Nate Ebner, Phillip Dorsett, Ted Karras, Elandon Roberts, Danny Shelton, Stephen Gostkowski, James Develin, Brandon Bolden and their combined 38 Super Bowl rings.
This isn’t exactly breaking news. But it is evident upon watching early Patriots training camp practices.
