FOXBORO — Patriots veteran offensive tackle Morgan Moses was a limited participant in practice Tuesday as he recovers from an offseason knee surgery, but he still proved he can be a valuable asset during OTAs.

Moses, who signed a three-year contract this offseason coming over from the Jets, was situated at right tackle during walkthrough portions of practice, but after the final whistle blew, he spent extra time helping No. 4 overall pick Will Campbell and young offensive tackles Caedan Wallace, Demontrey Jacobs and Marcus Bryant, a seventh-round pick.

“I think the biggest thing, I’ve been blessed to be under a lot of great tackles. I played with Trent Williams for five, six years, and just being able to learn from him and just take it on the field,” Moses said. “It’s vital because being a vet that’s played 12 years, and being able to sprinkle those little things to those guys and see them use them in practice and get better, and just build a toolbox for themselves. It’s good for everybody.”

Campbell’s approach has impressed Moses the most over the last two weeks.

“He’s eager to learn. He asks questions every day,” Moses said. “He’s like, ‘Bro, can we get some sets’ and just talking football. His locker is right beside mine. So we get to talk about football all day. And obviously, he’s a stud, man. He’s played great football in college, and so now he’s just trying to figure it out where, like, every week, you’re going against somebody that has a guy so just fine tune, not trying to change stuff, but just fine tuning the things he’s learned in college and taking him to the NFL and just on the field and getting challenged every day.”

It’s not just Moses who can bring veteran leadership to a group that includes eight offensive linemen who are in their third or fewer seasons.

Moses said that center Garrett Bradbury and guard Wes Schweitzer have been “phenomenal” as veterans. At least to begin OTAs, Bradbury was starting at center over rookie Jared Wilson. Campbell was positioned at left tackle with Cole Strange at left guard and Mike Onwenu at right guard next to Moses.

Schweitzer and Wallace were also heavily involved in the O-line. Head coach Mike Vrabel said the depth chart will be “fluid” this time of year.
