Training camp begins today and our final training camp primer will look at the team’s special teams, which has traditionally under Bill Belichick have been one of the team’s strengths. And in 2020, it was no exception.
The Patriots’ special teams were a bright spot on what was dismal, disappointing 2020 season. But as we mentioned above, the Patriots have always been one of the better STs units in the league. And a big part of the reason is that the Patriots put more emphasis and practice time on STs than most teams.
But despite their success in this area, there is room for improvement and there will be some competition that begins today.
