4 winners and 1 loser from the Patriots’ 12th training camp practice on Tuesday

During the New England Patriots’ 12th training camp practice, several players stood out, both positively and negatively. Here are five notable performances from the practice session:

TE Mike Gesicki: Gesicki made an exceptional one-handed catch on a pass from Mac Jones, out-leaping defenders Jabrill Peppers and Myles Bryant for a touchdown. This impressive play showcased Gesicki’s potential as a red zone threat.

WR Tyquan Thornton: After a couple of average practices, Thornton had a promising day. He performed well in one-on-one drills, made strong catches in team drills, and scored a touchdown over rookie Ameer Speed.

OT Sidy Sow: Sow rebounded from a challenging previous day by performing better in individual pass blocking drills and earning an opportunity to play alongside the starting offense, protecting Mac Jones’ right side.

DE Keion White: Rookie Keion White continued to shine, displaying clean wins in one-on-one drills against offensive linemen Jake Andrews and Conor McDermott.

OT Conor McDermott: McDermott had a less impressive day, struggling against Keion White and Josh Uche in one-on-one drills. He also drew a holding penalty and was placed second on the depth chart at right tackle.

Additionally, rookies Malik Cunningham and Demario Douglas received mention. Cunningham, typically a wide receiver, saw quarterback reps for the second day, while Douglas had an active practice but had to run a lap after mishandling a punt.

The Patriots’ next appearance will be in their preseason opener against the Houston Texans on Thursday night at Gillette Stadium. The matchup will give fans a chance to see how the team is progressing as they prepare for the upcoming season.
