Mike Vrabel and company rebuilt all parts of the Patriots roster upon arriving in New England last offseason, and the linebacker group was also not immune to change.

The New England Patriots find themselves in a much different position than they were at this time last season. After overhauling the roster in Year 1 under Mike Vrabel, the Patriots turned things around and advanced to Super Bowl LX.

With only one established option under contract for 2026, tight end is a serious if somewhat under-recognized need for the New England Patriots this offseason. The team making a splash at the position in free agency therefore would not come as a surprise, but one of the top options available won’t make it to the […]
The New England Patriots decided to shake up their running back room on Monday. Antonio Gibson, who originally joined the team on a three-year, $11.25 million free agency deal in 2024, was released after two seasons and 22 total games with the organization. The move itself did not come as too big a surprise. Not […]

The New England Patriots were busy rebuilding their offensive line last offseason, bringing in new starters at four of the five positions. And while it appears three are set for 2026, there are some serious questions at the other two: left guard and center are seemingly up in the air. Will changes really happen, though? […]
You watched the NFL playoffs. You saw the problems the New England Patriots offense had. You heard the Will Campbell discourse. Well, what if we told you that he actually is fairly low on the list of questions the team has? A 22-year-old former fourth overall draft pick whose development was disrupted by a mid-season […]
Only two weeks after they appeared in the Super Bowl, the New England Patriots have already set their sights on the first big item on the offseason calendar.

Even though the New England Patriots made some big investments in their offensive tackle group last offseason, it remains in the spotlight heading into 2026.

Hollins, 32, finished his inaugural […]

The New England Patriots went about to rebuild their offense in 2025, but one position group largely stayed the same compared to the previous season.

The offseason is set to pick up for the New England Patriots as the NFL Combine begins next week.

With Drake Maye playing at a Pro Bowl level and leading the Patriots to the Super Bowl, all eyes were on him in 2025. By extension, the spotlight was far less bright for the other members of New England’s quarterback depth chart, second-stringer Joshua Dobbs and third-stringer Tommy DeVito. Dobbs, like Maye, remains under contract […]

The New England Patriots passing offense was one of the best in the NFL during the 2025 regular season, but it struggled to produce at the same level against superior competition in the playoffs. There are several reasons for that, and a multitude of potential fixes including upgrading at the wide receiver position. Don’t get […]
The New England Patriots made a concerted effort to improve their wide receiver group in 2025, and they did.
