FOXBOROUGH — The New England Patriots will host their first playoff game at Gillette Stadium since the 2019 season next week.
After beating the Dolphins, 38-10, in their regular-season finale on Sunday evening, the Patriots secured the No. 2 seed in the AFC and will host the No. 7 Los Angeles Chargers in the Wild Card round of the NFL playoffs next weekend.
A date and start time for New England’s first postseason game since January 2022 has yet to be announced.
While New England already secured a playoff berth and the AFC East in back-to-back weeks, Mike Vrabel and the Patriots still had plenty to play for on Sunday.
