The big winner of Wednesday’s practice was no doubt third-year cornerback Joey Porter Jr, who put on a show early on and continued his strong performances throughout practice.

While the offense did improve in some areas, there were still too many turnovers, and the ball hit the ground way too often. The Titans’ defense is throwing mixed coverages at Ward early on, which could be one of the reasons for his early struggles. All in all, it was a solid day's work, and here are five takeaways from the session.

FOXBOROUGH — It was a hot day at Gillette Stadium on Tuesday as the New England Patriots took the field for the second straight padded practice. The competition is certainly ramping up, but it was the defense that came out on top during the sixth training camp session.
