• Foxborough slaps Kraft Group with nearly $23,000 fine for curfew-breaking Usher and Chris Brown show (bostonglobe.com) — Foxborough has fined the Kraft Group nearly $23,000 after an Usher and Chris Brown concert at Gillette Stadium ran up to 30 minutes past the town's curfew, drawing numerous noise complaints. The fine is calculated per attendee and reflects Foxborough's stricter enforcement of concert end times, even as officials sometimes extend curfews for select shows.

Brown moments (delawareonline.com) — Joint practices between the Eagles and Patriots in Foxborough this week gave the best early look at Philadelphia's new offense, with Jalen Hurts and Saquon Barkley facing last year's AFC champions.
