After turning heads with a spectacular catch on Day 1 of training camp, Patriots rookie Kyle Williams discussed acclimating to the NFL and learning under Stefon Diggs.

Patriot fans, tired of four-win teams, want something to root for. With Mike Vrabel at the helm, Josh McDaniels leading the offense, a revamped defense, and Maye getting a legitimate weapon, there’s a renewed sense of optimism. And listening to the crowd Wednesday, it’s not hard to glean where they think the team’s bread is buttered.

In due time, Diggs will find himself settled in the mix for the Patriots offense after a few reps under his belt, with training camp being the perfect time to get adjusted. This article was originally published on www.si.com/nfl/patriots as Patriots' Stefon Diggs Gets Honest After First Practice.

Early on, that was something that was important to know, was that he wanted to lead, and there had been zero pushback,” head coach Mike Vrabel said.

Per Matt Holder of Bleacher Report, former sixth-round pick Kayshon Boutte is one of six players around the NFL who require a change of scenery. Boutte was a late-round addition for the Patriots in the 2023 NFL Draft. A player with excellent potential, Boutte fell due to off-field problems and caught just two passes in his rookie season.

Douglas is aware that the opportunity to work with McDaniels gives him the chance to take his game to another level.

After Diggs, there’s Bourne, DeMario Douglas, Kayshon Boutte, Mack Hollins (currently on PUP), Javon Baker, Ja’Lynn Polk, who has yet to see the field during training camp due to a new injury, along with promising rookies Kyle Williams and Efton Chism III.

Patriots coach Mike Vrabel said that rehabbing star WR Stefon Diggs will be a full participant in training camp.
