Patriots Edge Rusher Saga

The Patriots’ draft hopes hit a snag as second-round pick Gabe Jacas remains unsigned and sidelined, missing mandatory minicamp after a “procedure.” Head coach Mike Vrabel bluntly confirmed Jacas’ absence is due to lack of contract, leaving the edge rush unit — already thin after a 35-sack season — even more uncertain. Vrabel used the moment to publicly challenge the entire group, sending a clear message: get healthy, get signed, and get to work. With training camp starting July 24, fans are watching closely to see if Jacas will finally join the team — or if this delay becomes a major liability.
