Only left tackle Trent Brown, cornerback J.C. Jackson and wide receiver DeVante Parker were missing. The Patriots ruled all three players out before traveling Thursday night. The team landed in Frankfurt around 8 a.m. local time.

Friday’s practice was a non-padded session that opened with special teams work and light 7-on-7 drills. Rookie receiver Kayshon Boutte worked briefly with the starting offense after Pats coach Bill Belichick said during an earlier press conference he was trending in the right direction. Belichick also said the team effectively packed three days worth of preparation into Wednesday and Thursday.

The Patriots are building toward a Sunday kickoff against the Colts at 9:30 a.m. ET. It will be their first international game since playing in Mexico City in 2017.

The team will release its final injury report Friday.
