Patriots prepare for preseason game against Eagles after joint practices

The New England Patriots are set to face the Philadelphia Eagles in a preseason game on Saturday after two days of joint practices earlier in the week. Quarterback Drake Maye, now in his third year, reflects on his progression since his rookie season, with questions lingering about whether he and other starters will see action. Wide receiver Kayshon Boutte's future with the team remains uncertain, particularly after he did not receive any targets in the team's previous preseason matchup. Additionally, the performance of the offensive line will be a crucial element to watch as the Patriots refine their roster before the regular season. Fans will be looking to see how the run game develops during this outing, as the team seeks improvement on last week’s performance against the Colts.
