Rookie RB Sony Michel, who had a procedure to drain fluid from his knee in early August, returned to the practice field for the first time since Aug. 1. When Michel had the procedure, those close to the situation projected he would miss at least 10 days, but believed that his availability for most (if not all) of the regular season wouldn't be in jeopardy. While it naturally isn't ideal for Michel to have missed the first three preseason games, and it's highly unlikely he would play in
Thursday's finale, his presence on the field Monday represented a positive step for him. Also, starting right tackle Marcus Cannon (strained calf muscle) returned to practice Monday.

Good news on both accounts.

Patriots likely to add veterans in advance of season

The Patriots are annually one of the toughest teams to gauge heading into September. They often make a few moves right before roster cut-downs, and this year is shaping up to be no different. With a slew of injuries, releases, and retirements to their receiving corps, a move for a veteran wide receiver is a definite possibility.

Whatever happens, it’s clear the Patriots will likely add some players who aren’t currently on the roster before Week 1, whether by trade or free agent signing. With that in mind, Ben Volin of the Boston Globe took a stab at projecting the Patriots‘ roster, and had a few interesting predictions.

It seems to be a consensus now that there is only a single roster spot available for either Jeremy Hill or Mike Gilislee, and Volin thinks Hill will win the battle. Despite being very thin at receiver entering the season, Volin doesn’t think sixth round rookie Braxton Berrios will make the team. He also thinks the team will opt against carrying three quarterbacks this year, cutting rookie seventh-rounder Danny Eitling.
