When the NFL announced its 2019 preseason schedule in early April, two games jumped off the page as potential opportunities for joint training camp practices with other teams: the preseason opener at the Detroit Lions on August 8, and the second exhibition game against the Tennessee Titans on August 17. Both clubs, of course, are led by former members of the Patriots organization and have multiple ties to New England.
After New England already held its joint sessions with the Lions last week, the team has now headed to Tennessee to take on the AFC South squad led by former Patriots linebacker Mike Vrabel.
