Bill Belichick spent a significant portion of Monday morning's practice session working on situational football, according to a Tweet from WEEI.com's Chris Price, as the team readies itself for the preseason opener against the New Orleans Saints on Thursday night at Gillette Stadium in Foxboro, MA.
Pats work almost exclusively on situational football throughout session. Prep work for preseason opener on Thursday.
