Practice peek: Mitchell yes, Wilson and Alexander no

The Patriots are back outside for their last on-field practice of the week, and as the entry title indicates, special teamer Mel Mitchell was back on the field but Eugene Wilson and Eric Alexander were not.

It is very windy today, and it was amazing to see a Stephen Gostkowski kickoff hit its peak and then fall straight down as if it hit a wall when a gust came. Probably a lot like the conditions in Buffalo on Sunday.
