Patriots experiment with Caleb Lomu at guard during training camp

The New England Patriots are working rookie offensive tackle Caleb Lomu at guard, according to head coach Mike Vrabel. Alongside Lomu, veteran James Hudson is also receiving reps at the guard position. The shift comes as the team's depth at guard, behind Alijah Vera-Tucker and Mike Onwenu, raises concerns. This adjustment allows Lomu to showcase his versatility, which could provide valuable options for the offensive line as the season progresses. The Patriots drafted Lomu in the first round with the expectation he could play tackle, but his ability to contribute at guard may be tested this summer.
