Relative to other free agents brought in by the New England Patriots last offseason, Khyiris Tonga came relatively cheap. However, despite playing on a comparatively modest one-year, $2.1 million contract, the veteran defensive tackle proved himself a valuable member of the team’s interior defensive line — so much so that the Patriots tried to extend […]
In 2024, the New England Patriots spent almost a third of their offensive snaps operating out of 12-personnel packages with two tight ends on the field. The expectation was that more of the same would be on the menu for 2025, but that did not materialize for a multitude of reasons. One of them might […]
The New England Patriots’ tight end position was a mixed bag in 2025. Hunter Henry was one of the team’s most reliable players but he was relatively quiet in the playoffs; Austin Hooper was a limited factor in the passing game and mostly employed as a blocker; C.J. Dippre did receive some interest from other […]

As we’re all well aware, Houston Texans quarterback C.J. Stroud had a disastrous outing in the AFC divisional round against the New England Patriots. The backlash from this, as is often the case in sports fandom, was knee-jerkish and rapidly took on a torches and pitchforks vibe. On the surface, it’s cheap and easy to […]

The New England Patriots entered their 2025 training camp with Kyle Dugger and Jabrill Peppers seemingly the undisputed top two options at safety.
