New England Patriots Minicamp Preview | Patriots Roundtable Podcast

The New England Patriots stole headlines across the NFL while working through Organized Team Activities (OTAs), headlined by a trade for All-Pro wide receiver A.J. Brown. Now, the team looks ahead to minicamp — which has been moved up to June 9-11 and is the first mandatory portion of the offseason program — with an expanding arsenal of weapons around quarterback Drake Maye. This week on the Patriots Roundtable Podcast, we review the biggest storylines from OTAs and how they may carry over into minicamp. From more activity in New England’s wide receiver room with rumors circulating around Stefon Diggs and Kayshon Boutte, to the impact of Julian Hill’s injury and the opportunity ahead for Eli Raridon, the Patriots 2026 roster is evolving — and so are expectations. How do you think the Patriots roster is shaping up for the 2026 season? What storylines from minicamp do you think are most important for the team as they prepare for another playoff run?   Drop your thoughts in the comments below and join the conversation on Patriots Roundtable.
