After winning the AFC East last week thanks to the Bills' demise against the Eagles, the Patriots are set to face the Dolphins at home for their final game of the 2025 season. The expectation is that they will enter the playoffs with an impressive 14-3 record, and projections have them facing the Chargers in the Wild Card round.
They should be in good hands on the injury front for that game, as a handful of starters have now been activated to return from injured reserve at the perfect time. The first was defensive tackle Milton Williams, who dealt with an ankle injury last month, and could suit up for Sunday's game.
