FOXBOROUGH – The 2025 NFL season is almost here.
For the Patriots, this Week 1 matchup against the Las Vegas Raiders marks a new chapter for the franchise. New coach Mike Vrabel brings a new level of optimism to the region. Add in an exciting free agent class and a hopeful draft class, and it looks like the Patriots should be more competitive this fall.
Of course, the Patriots won’t turn into a playoff contender overnight. Coming off back-to-back 4-win seasons, there isn’t a lot of depth on Vrabel’s roster. The hope is that an improved coaching staff will make up the difference.
