Patriots training camp notebook: Romeo Doubs, receivers shine in red zone
The Patriots held their 15th training practice on Saturday, August 15.
On July 28, 2026, New England Patriots wide receiver Romeo Doubs led the pack in practice at Gillette Stadium, impressing head coach Mike Vrabel with his performance in the red zone. The Patriots kicked off their preseason camp with full pads, focusing on critical situations like the red zone and end-of-game scenarios.
Doubs shined, tallying multiple high-point touchdowns, including two in full-team work, with Drake Maye's end-of-game situations. He also succeeded Mack Hollins, A.J. Brown, and Hunter Henry in the red zone, with DeVito adding a touchdown of his own. Hunter Henry caught two scores from Maye, while Kyle Williams and Jacas also found the end zone.
Notably, cornerback Carlton Davis returned to full-team periods after suffering a hamstring injury, but his performance was inconsistent, allowing multiple touchdowns. Charles Woods, also returning, struggled on the wrong side of several touchdowns by Doubs. The practice also saw rookie edge defender Gabe Jacas making a strong impression, showcasing his physicality in run stuffs.
