Patriots coach Mike Rabel skipped day three of the 2026 NFL draft to be with his family, but he showed up back at work on Monday, per A. Team source. Last week, he left the door open for missing more time, yet after a full weekend away, he's right back in the mix. The team originally thought about looping him in on Saturday picks, but exec Elliott Wolfe decided to let him unplug for real, just sent a quick text. Checking in early that morning, Wolfe held it down in the draft from Solo and grabbed six new players for the squad. With optional player workouts kicking off this week, coaches like Rabel stay off the field to organize team activities hit on May. 27th keeping things rolling smooth into the offseason grind.
