After weeks of FIFA fever<\/a> at “Boston Stadium,” Gillette Stadium is back, and so, too, is Patriots<\/a> football. The road back to the Super Bowl<\/a> begins now, and the reigning AFC champs are ready to go.<\/p>\n

Patriots training camp<\/h2>\n

There are so many story lines heading into this new season for the New England Patriots<\/a>. There was a little offseason drama but Head Coach Mike Vrabel seems poised and ready to lead this team for a second year. He’s scheduled to speak to the media at 11:30 a.m. today.<\/p>\n

Other story lines to watch include Cornerback Christian Gonzalez, who wants a new contract. It’s unclear how long that will linger into camp. We’ll be keeping an eye on that dispute. <\/p>\n

New draft pick left tackle Caleb Lomu will be here to help with what was one of the biggest areas of concern for the team. And then there’s the combo we’ve been waiting for — Drake Maye to A.J. Brown.<\/p>\n

The first public training camp practice will be on Saturday at 10:30 a.m. Gates open at 9:15 a.m. Practice will last about two hours and is free to the public.<\/p>\n

Patriots practices open to the public on these days<\/h2>\n
