FOXBORO The final Patriots practice of the spring ended with offensive and defensive players huddled around NFL referees, called on by head coach Jerod Mayo to officiate practice. With the raise of an officials' arms, offensive players celebrated and defensive players were forced to do pushups. Quarterback Drake Maye had tossed a fade to fellow wide receiver Ja'Lynn Polk, a fellow rookie, who had to extend to catch the pass as he fell to the ground with undrafted rookie cornerback Mikey Victor in coverage.
FOXBORO The Patriots might not be done building out their offensive line before the 2024 season. The Patriots took a non-traditional approach to replacing Trent Brown at left tackle this offseason, signing ex-Steelers starting right tackle Chukwuma Okorafor and selecting Penn State starting right tackle Caedan Wallace in the third round in hopes that one or both players could transition to the left side.
The New England Patriots reportedly told Andrew Stueber they plan to waive him. New England reduces the number of offensive linemen on their 90-man offseason roster to 17.
