Minicamp

Despite both Tom Brady and Rob Gronkowski's absences during last month's organized team activity practices, all seemed to be well for the New England Patriots Monday.

One week into mandatory minicamp, the New England Patriots saw two of their biggest offensive weapons take the field for the first time today.

While the New England Patriots started their mandatory minicamp practices today, one notable star was missing in action; Rob Gronkowski.

The New England Patriots opened up mandatory minicamp Tuesday and, while he was not present for the team's voluntary organized team activities back in May, cornerback and Super Bowl XLIX hero Malcolm Butler was back on the field with his teammates.
