With the NFL Draft in the books, the team continues its preparation for the 2025 season.

The NFL Draft is over; the offseason workout program continues.

On Monday, the New England Patriots will be back at Gillette Stadium to kick off the second phase of their voluntary program.

Over the next three weeks, they will gradually continue to build on the foundation that has been built since April 7. The expectation is that attendance will once again be strong despite the voluntary nature of these workouts.

As opposed to Phase 1, which limited team activities to meetings as well as strength and conditioning work, this next phase will see the full coaching staff get involved on the field. Over the next three weeks, on-field workouts as well as individual and group instruction are permitted.

This includes drills and play simulation with offensive players lining up opposite other offensive players, and defensive players lining up opposite their fellow defenders. In accordance with the NFL-NFLPA Collective Bargaining Agreement, those drills are only allowed to happen at a walkthrough pace and without any live contact or full-team work.

“I think it’s really good,” said head coach Mike Vrabel about offseason workouts last week. “We’re off to a great start. This is a unique time; we had a couple of extra weeks. I would say the attitude has been great, the work has been great, and the guys are hungry to learn the new systems, the terminology. Change is inevitable every year in this league. They are excited, I think, for that, and we’ll just keep building.”

The Patriots will begin their third and final phase of offseason work on May 19 with the first of nine scheduled organized team activities. Phase 3 will also include a three-day mandatory minicamp on June 9-11.

The full offseason workout schedule was announced by the Patriots in early April.
