From watching nine training camp practices, it was pretty obvious the Patriots had acquired some special receiving talent during the offseason. But the real test would come when the wideouts were put up against opposition from another team. From the sound of things, they’re passing with flying colors during their first joint practice with the Eagles.
Jeff Howe of the Boston Herald, Nick Underhill of MassLive.com, Mike Tanier of Sports on Earth and Mike Giardi of Comcast Sports Net have all sent out tweets praising the Patriots’ receivers for beating the Eagles’ defenders handily during 1-on-1 and 7-on-7 drills.
Check out their reports below.
