No players were listed as non-participants, but five were limited during Wednesday’s practice in Foxboro, Mass. The session was the first of the offseason that saw New England enjoy perfect attendance.

Tackle Trent Brown and cornerback Jack Jones were surprise inclusions and are dealing with an illness and hamstring injury, respectively. Additionally, the Patriots revealed that a knee issue is what’s hampered receiver DeVante Parker over the last week.
