Patriots DT Christian Barmore studying four linemen for 2025 season

New England Patriots defensive tackle Christian Barmore has been studying some of the best defensive linemen in the league in preparation for the 2025 season.

He is doing the extra homework in hopes of maximizing his potential in a defensive system that allows him to get upfield more often. That has led to him studying other big, athletic defensive linemen, such as Jeffery Simmons, Chris Jones, DeForest Buckner and Cameron Heyward.

Barmore is looking to have a bounce-back year after missing most of the 2024 season due to blood clots. He has participated in all of the offseason work up to this point.
