What's up, friends? Welcome back to another episode of the Packaday podcast. I'm your host,

Andy Herman. You can follow me on Twitter at Andy Herman NFL. You can follow the podcast at Packaday

Podcast. This is our quick hits episode of practice number 12. Can't believe we're 12 practices in

already. I'll have a full breakdown of the practice on tomorrow's episode,

but wanted to get some of the key takeaways out there for you guys immediately.

So that's what we're going to do. Let's start with the injury side of things.

Kenny Clark was a new addition to the injury list. He was off to the side on the exercise

bikes alongside David Bactiari and Caleb Jones. It is a back injury. You never quite know,

and those things are going to flare up. Insert, his back was hurting because he's been carrying

the defense jokes here. But hopefully it's not anything serious for Kenny. Just the way it seemed

and how he was working out on the exercise bike made me believe that maybe it's not super serious,

but you never want to try to glean too much

from like basically nothing. So we'll kind of keep an eye on it moving forward. We'll see if he's

able to do any of the practices with the Patriots. My guess is he probably doesn't do team stuff.

I'm guaranteed, like I'm almost guaranteeing. He probably won't play in the preseason game this

week. But still, a new injury for Kenny Clark, and that's one that we'll keep an eye on.

Meanwhile, Jair Alexander did return to practice.

He did not do any team drills.

He did do a punt that he shanked completely to the left, an awful, awful punt.

I think I would probably put him somewhere between 50 and 53 on the emergency punter list at this point.
