Patriots will have to wait for real preseason test after Commanders' decision
Briefly

The Patriots have completed three weeks of training camp and are looking forward to their preseason opener against the Commanders. Under new leadership from Mike Vrabel, they appear to be ahead of last season's performance. The prior joint practice against the Eagles was challenging, but the atmosphere was different in practice against the Commanders, although tensions rose. The starters for the Commanders will not play, providing a slight advantage but limiting the Patriots' ability to gauge their progress against starters. All healthy Patriots players are expected to participate in the game.
