Kyle Love Returns to Practice, Patriots Have Perfect Attendance for Second Time

FOXBORO, Mass. — Patriots defensive tackle Kyle Love returned to practice Thursday, and the team had full attendance for the second time in three days.

Love (not injury related) missed Wednesday's session. No one missed any practices this week for injury-related reasons. Prior to this week, the Patriots held 84 consecutive official practices without perfect attendance.

The Patriots practiced in shorts and shells inside the Dana-Farber Field House due to the heavy rain at Gillette Stadium.

At the start of practice, quarterback Tom Brady was having a laugh with offensive coordinator Bill O'Brien and newly hired assistant coach Josh McDaniels.
