Among those pictured by the organization were newcomers like draftees Devin Asiasi and Dalton Keene, along with quarterback Cam Newton and safety Adrian Phillips.

Veteran receiver Julian Edelman also was photographed, along with Matthew Slater, Terrance Brooks, James White, Isaiah Wynn and countless others.
