FOXBORO, MASS. -- The Patriots on Tuesday had slightly better OTAs attendance than what we saw last Monday, when New England held its first practice with media access.
However, two key players remained absent, with two others joining the list.
Offensive linemen Isaiah Wynn, linebacker Matthew Judon and receiver N'Keal Harry all were absent after missing last week's voluntary practices. So, too, was kicker Quinn Nordin.
Tackle Trent Brown, running back James White and defensive lineman Davon Godchaux also were missing. Thus far, there have been no explanations for why any of the aforementioned players haven't shown up.
Here's the full list of players who weren't spotted on the practice field outside Gillette Stadium:
WR N'Keal Harry
OLB Matthew Judon
K Quinn Nordin
RB James White
LB Anfernee Jennings
OL Chasen Hines
OL Andrew Stueber
OT Isaiah Wynn
OT Trent Brown
DT Davon Godchaux
DT Byron Cowart
Adrian Phillips, Jahlani Tavai, Ronnie Perkins and Lawrence Guy all practiced after being absent last Monday.
Multiple players departed practice to work on the side field. Typically, that indicates some sort of injury/rehab situation.
Here's the full list:
S Brenden Schooler
DL DaMarcus Mitchell
LB Raekwon McMillan
TE Dalton Keene
S Jabrill Peppers
