Patriots updated roster and depth chart for 2026 regular season
The New England Patriots’ regular season is underway, which also means that their roster and practice squad will undergo near-constant change. For reference, between the opener and regular season finale alone last season, the eventual conference champions made 102 different transactions. It remains to be seen how many there will be in 2026, but things […]
Patriots place seventh-round pick Quintayvious Hutchins on injured reserve
The New England Patriots will head into the fall without Quintayvious Hutchins on the field. The organization officially placed the rookie outside linebacker on injured reserve Friday afternoon.

Patriots vs. Jaguars Friday injury report: Craig Woodson, Eli Raridon questionable for Week 3

He moves forward as questionable to face the Jacksonville Jaguars along with […]
Patriots vs. Jaguars predictions for Week 3
The New England Patriots starting with a 1-2 record is nothing new. They did so in 2025 in Mike Vrabel’s first year with the club, and the year before that under Jerod Mayo, and in Bill Belichick’s final campaign before that. Currently at 1-1, however, the goal naturally is to break that streak this week. […]
Patriots rookie Namdi Obiazor emerging as a special teams standout
The New England Patriots’ first two games of the season have started the same way: rookie Namdi Obiazor making a tackle on the opening kickoff. Obiazor hasn’t stopped there. After becoming the first Patriots player since at least 2000 to record three special teams tackles in his very first NFL game, Obiazor recorded two more […]
Patriots vs. Jaguars weather forecast for NFL Week 3

Eli Raridon’s early growth creating new opportunities for Patriots offense
The New England Patriots’ first touchdown of the season went to rookie tight end Eli Raridon.

As Raridon has made his […]

Patriots vs. Jaguars Thursday injury report: Eli Raridon joins New England’s sidelined group

Patriots special teams coordinator still has nightmares of last Jaguars game
Jeremy Springer won’t forget October 20, 2024 anytime soon. That day, his special teams unit surrendered a 96-yard punt return touchdown to the Jacksonville Jaguars’ Parker Washington.

Josh McDaniels preaches patience with Patriots offense
As the New England Patriots’ offense has gotten off to a slow start through two games, quarterback Drake Maye noted that the unit is still “finding themselves.” For offensive coordinator Josh McDaniels, that’s a typical part of the process at this point in the season. “I think it’s normal,” McDaniels said Thursday. “This time of […]

Drake Maye, Patriots offense looking to find rhythm after slow start
It’s been a slow start to the season for Drake Maye and the New England Patriots offense. Through two games, the unit is averaging just 11.5 points per game while ranking 23rd in EPA/play.
