The New England Patriots enter the 2025 NFL season with renewed optimism. The franchise underwent some major changes in the offseason, firing first-year head coach Jerod Mayo and replacing him with former Patriots’ linebacker and Tennessee Titans head coach Mike Vrabel. There’s also hope that their 2024 first-round pick, quarterback Drake Maye, can continue to ascend. Things are pointing in the upward trajectory in Foxborough.
The front office invested heavily on the defensive side of the ball this offseason, bringing in Milton Williams, Robert Spillane, Carlton Davis III, and Harold Landry III, as well as a host of other faces.
