Play of the day

The Patriots wrapped up today's afternoon session by running two-minute drills with the first- and second-team offenses and defenses. Loud music subbed for crowd noise.

The first-team offense was efficient, and Tom Brady connected on the play of the day when he threw about 30 yards downfield to Benjamin Watson, who made a terrific catch in double coverage. Brady followed by hitting Reche Caldwell on a fade route at the sidelines. Operating in the red zone, Brady showed some of his trademark fire, barking at linebacker Don Davis for, in Brady's view, holding Kevin Faulk on an underneath pass that fell incomplete.

Matt Cassel had less success. He struggled to move the second team (although his receivers didn't help) until throwing an interception to Willie Andrews on a deflected pass.

The Pats will return to the practice field at Foxboro tomorrow, for sessions starting at 8:45 a.m. and 5:30 p.m. Joe McDonald will be here to blog, so check back often. Shalise Manza Young will have coverage in tomorrow's Providence Journal. That's all for today.
