FOXBOROUGH – After perfect attendance at practice for the New England Patriots on Wednesday, they’re ready to kick off their Thanksgiving festivities with some classics.

Just like you and me, the New England Patriots are celebrating and as athletes, they’re definitely not holding back on the eats.

I got to chat with a few of the guys in the locker room about their favorite Thanksgiving dishes. So, who likes what?

Deatrich Wise – “Sweet potato pie”

Drake Maye – “Pumpkin Pie”

Pop Douglas – “Ham”

Kendrick Bourne – “Ham”

Ben Brown – “Oh favorite Thanksgiving dish? So my dad will deep fry turkey, so for sure deep fried turkey. Squash casserole, mashed potatoes, corn bread, I mean it’s the whole dish that makes it honestly.”

Kayshon Boutte – “I gotta go mac and cheese…we do baked.”

With a home game against the Colts set for 1:00 p.m. on Sunday, most of these guys should be plenty fueled up by game time after enjoying some of their favorites with family and friends this Thanksgiving.
