5 standouts from Day 4 of Patriots training camp practice

The New England Patriots We are back out on the practice field for Day 4 of training camp on Saturday. There was a greater intensity with this session following Friday's walkthrough practice.

This was no mere dink and dunk session in the competitive periods between the offense and defense. Quarterback Drake Maye didn't have his strongest practice of the year, but he did air the ball out more than once, resulting in a couple of major highlight reel plays .

With that said, the offense ran into trouble against the defense in this game. Maye missed some throws, and the offensive line struggled in pass protection. It has looked like a game of musical chairs along the offensive front, and the Patriots are hoping they can have a more stable core before the start of the season.

Here were the top five standouts from Day 4 of training camp:

WR Demario Douglas

Demario Douglas was heating up at practice on Saturday with multiple highlight-reel catches, including a 50-yard bomb for a touchdown and a beautiful reception over cornerback Marcus Jones, where he high-pointed the ball.

There has been so much talk about Stefon Diggs and Kyle Williams that people have seemingly forgotten about Douglas, who should be even better in Josh McDaniels' offense. His growing connection with Drake Maye could ultimately lead to a breakout season.

S Jabrill Peppers

Safety Jabrill Peppers let a potential Drake Maye interception slip through his fingers earlier in camp. He didn't make the same mistake twice when coming up with a tip drill interception from linebacker Jack Gibbens against backup quarterback Joshua Dobbs. There is no question that Peppers is a difference-maker when he's on the field. He's one of those players who consistently seems to be in the right place at the right time.

WR Javon Baker

After three quiet practices, Javon Baker finally broke out by hauling in a 60-yard touchdown reception from Drake Maye. The second-year wideout beat veteran safety Jaylinn Hawkins badly with a double move and made one of the most impressive plays of the day in seven-on-sevens. Whether he keeps that momentum going the rest of the way or not remains to be seen.

EDGE Keion White

Keion White has been a constant disruptive force along the defensive front through the first week of training camp. He was at it again on Saturday with two would-be sacks. Rookie offensive tackle Will Campbell has held his own in the head-to-head matchups, but it will be fun to see that competition when the pads finally come on Monday.

RB TreVeyon Henderson

Rookie running back TreVeyon Henderson looked solid catching passes out of the offensive backfield. His speed and receiving skills are going to be real weapons for offensive coordinator Josh McDaniels. Receivers struggled to separate in New England throughout the 2024 season. If that somehow remains the case in 2025, Henderson is a real mismatch that the Patriots should be able to use to their advantage.
