  Bedard: Patriots Offense INCREDIBLE Against Eagles in Joint Practice 19.08.2026 11Min.

  FOXBORO --- Greg Bedard delivers a quick but thorough solo report straight from Gillette Stadium after the Patriots and Eagles wrapped up their first joint practice. The run game was a mixed bag — New England held its own, but the Eagles' ground attack had some success. The passing offense, highlighted by Drake Maye and A.J. Brown, flourished. Defensively, the Patriots installed their new hybrid man-to-man scheme and created consistent pressure on Jalen Hurts, with Christian Barmore registering a sack and free runners coming from multiple spots. Jared Wilson and Craig Woodson were standouts, while Marcus Jones made plays all over the field including a pick-six. Marcus Bryant's position switch is worth monitoring. Drake Maye led a sharp two-minute drill to close practice. Greg also recaps the one scuffle of the day — a field goal altercation involving Jalen Carter — and previews what to watch in joint practice number two tomorrow.
