Ranking the Patriots' position groups heading into camp, and a Jacas update
Boston Sports Journal • • sports
Key Points:
- The Patriots placed DE Harold Landry and TE CJ Dippre on the active PUP list, while RB Terrell Jennings started camp on the NFI list, with Landry's absence expected due to offseason inactivity and Dippre's injury raising concerns given other TE absences.
- The team's first padded practice is scheduled for Thursday, marking the true start of training camp, with the first practice session occurring on Saturday.
- Second-round pick Gabe Jacas has not yet signed his contract and did not report to the facility, likely due to disagreements over guaranteed money following a post-draft medical procedure.
- Jacas remains the last unsigned second-round pick, with only first-round QBs Fernando Mendoza and Ty Simpson yet to sign their deals.
- The Patriots may need to adjust their tight end roster quickly due to Dippre's injury and the absence of Julian Hill.
