Andy Borregales got his first chance at a go-ahead NFL field-goal attempt on Sunday night, and he drilled it right down the middle.
The Patriots were tied with the reigning AFC East champion Bills. Drake Maye and Stefon Diggs had taken the offense as far as it would go. Mike Vrabel ran the clock down to 20 seconds and trusted his rookie kicker.
“Just treated it like any other kick,” Borregales said. “Went out there, trusted that the snap was going to get there, hold was going to be great, everyone’s going to block in front, and the ball goes in.
