4 offensive standouts from the East-West Shrine Bowl practices

Due to the nature of one-on-ones, receivers tended to shine over the course of four practices. The defense defended receivers better in team, but there were still a few receivers who still got open consistently. Here are my standouts after observing Shrine Bowl practices:

51 days till Patriots season opener: Every player to wear No. 51 for New England

Here’s a list of every Patriots player to wear the No. 51 jersey number

Third-year linebacker Ronnie Perkins currently wears the number that has been draped across the jerseys of 24 total Patriots players in the past. Former All-Pro linebacker and current Patriots linebackers coach Jerod Mayo was one of those players.
