And the Mayo era is off....
"The nine-week offseason program is strictly voluntary, outside of a one-week mandatory minicamp in June.
Phase One consists of the first two weeks of the program, with activities limited to meetings, strength and conditioning, and physical rehabilitation only. Essentially, it's the getting-to-know-you portion of the school year.
For first-time head coaches Dave Canales, Jerod Mayo, Mike Macdonald, and Brian Callahan, their tenures kick off in earnest today."

Mike Reiss of ESPN.com notes that Jacoby Brissett, who signed with the Patriots in the offseason, has a $500,000 workout bonus. Tight end Hunter Henry, who re-signed after his prior contract expired, has a $350,000 workout bonus.
Typically, workout bonuses require a very high degree of participation in the offseason program. And it’s all-or-nothing; there’s no partial credit for partial attendance and participation.

And speaking of Reiss, he just tweeted this out. I love it:

Davon Godchaux on head coach Jerod Mayo and the new #Patriots regime: “I got plenty faith that’s it’s gonna go in the right way. Big fan of Jerod Mayo — great guy, great leader… of course Bill Belichick is gonna be missed… the greatest coach of all time… but couldn’t give [the job] to a better guy, Robert Kraft made a great decision when he hired Jerod Mayo… The defense is gonna be pretty much the same. We gonna do what we do… I’m not an offensive guy, so I don’t know what they gonna do, but hopefully it’s gonna be something good… I can’t wait to see it. Can’t wait to get into it and just get around the team— get around the guys and build the great relationships that we had the past couple seasons. Got a couple new faces, so it’s gonna be good… but like I said it’s April. Football season doesn’t start until September, so I know everybody’s getting excited, but just pump the brakes.”
