New England Patriots quarterback Drake Maye drew praise from head coach Mike Vrabel after Wednesday’s first joint practice with the Minnesota Vikings in Eagan, Minnesota. Vrabel said he “didn’t see any panic” from the second-year passer despite repeated pressure behind an offensive line that featured rookies Will Campbell at left tackle and Jared Wilson at left guard. Maye extended several plays, including a deep completion to Stefon Diggs during 11-on-11 work, while rookie running back TreVeyon Henderson provided additional highlights with multiple long gains. The Patriots and Vikings will conduct a second joint session on Thursday ahead of their Week 2 preseason game Saturday. New England continues to adjust its protection schemes as the young line settles in, with Vrabel emphasizing quicker communication and execution to capitalize on Maye’s poise outside the pocket. In Allen Park, Michigan, the Miami Dolphins enjoyed a smoother second joint practice against the Detroit Lions after a “very frustrating” opener. Edge rusher Chop Robinson returned one day after leaving on a cart with what head coach Mike McDaniel called a rib bruise, but star wide receiver Tyreek Hill remained sidelined by an oblique strain. Linebacker Jaelan Phillips and fullback Alec Ingold also sat out, and McDaniel confirmed that none of his starters will play in Friday’s preseason game at Ford Field. Miami shored up its offensive line by signing veteran tackle Yodny Cajuste and placing Germain Ifedi on injured reserve with a torn tricep. McDaniel said the two joint practices provided sufficient first-team work as the club prioritises health entering the final weeks of training camp.
