Caleb Lomu, the New England Patriots' first-round draft pick, is undergoing a positional change from left to right tackle. Practicing extensively with the starting offense at Gillette Stadium, Lomu is adapting well, feeling more comfortable after initial adjustments. His increased practice opportunities have come partly due to the nominal starting right tackle Morgan Moses being limited this spring. Lomu is focusing on refining his hand usage and footwork as he continues to develop ahead of training camp. Head coach Mike Vrabel noted his versatility and quick learning ability during this transitional period.
