Patriots Practice Notes: New England In Good Health Before Season Opener
FOXBORO, Mass. — The New England Patriots had perfect practice attendance the Wednesday before their season-opener against the Pittsburgh Steelers, with all 53 players on the active roster and 10 practice-squadders on the field.

Despite working out seven players Wednesday, there were no new faces on the roster or practice squad.
In the brief glimpse of practice open to the media, secondary/safeties coach Steve Belichick was working with defensive linemen, while defensive line coach Bret Bielema was putting safeties through a drill. Then they switched.

What do you think? Leave a comment.
It seems the Patriots like versatility out of their coaches, as well.
