The Philadelphia Eagles and New England Patriots met for a joint training-camp practice in Foxborough, with the Eagles using the session as a key tune-up before the season.

Philadelphia and New England conducted the first of two joint training-camp practices on Wednesday in Foxborough, Massachusetts.

The schedule listed a Vic Fangio press conference at 9:55 a.m. Eastern, followed by the practice at 10:15 a.m., after which select participants were available for media questions. Fans were permitted to attend the session, and the team’s media outlet offered live updates and video coverage of the event.
