Mac Jones’ stat line didn’t look too bad in the New England Patriots’ Week 1 loss to the Philadelphia Eagles, but he felt like he came up short when his team needed him most. The Patriots quarterback completed 35 of 54 passes for 316 yards and three touchdowns, but he threw a costly pick-6 on […]

There is no question in any NFL fan’s mind that Tom Brady deserves to be in the Pro Football Hall of Fame.

While Tom Brady played the final years of his legendary NFL career with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, he’ll obviously always be remembered more for his 20 seasons with the New England Patriots. While his two-decade tenure in New England didn’t exactly have a storybook ending (the three-time NFL MVP was essentially pushed out the door), […]

A certain Tom Brady was in attendance at the New England Patriots game. The Patriots kicked off their NFL season against the Philadelphia Eagles on Sunday and prior to kickoff, Brady was shown on top of the new 22-story lighthouse at Gillette Stadium where he rang the bell.

The New England Patriots will be down a key offensive player in their season-opening matchup against the Philadelphia Eagles, but they’re expected to have their top player on that side of the ball suit up.

New England Patriots corner back Jack Jones will miss “some time” with a hamstring injury he suffered in Wednesday’s practice, according to the Athletic.

The New England Patriots’ 2023 regular-season opener pits Mac Jones against a former teammate of his. Jalen Hurts and the Philadelphia Eagles will make their way into Foxborough on Sunday.

[…]

When the New England Patriots brought Malik Cunningham back and placed him on the practice squad following cutdown day, many assumed that he would be used to mimic one of the many mobile quarterbacks the team has on their schedule this season.

The New England Patriots’ decision to cut Bailey Zappe on cutdown day last week surprised many, leading some to speculate why the second-year quarterback was cut by the team.

Two years ago, you’d be called crazy to suggest that Mac Jones’ job with the New England Patriots wasn’t safe. After an excellent rookie season, many felt that he was going to be the future of the Pats. After a bumpy 2022 season, though, Jones found himself in a fight for his starting QB job. […]

The New England Patriots had just one quarterback on the roster when they got down to the 53-man roster limit Tuesday, as they had parted company with Bailey Zappe.

The New England Patriots may be one of the most confusing teams in the NFL heading into the 2023 NFL season. Nobody really knows what to expect from them.

Jalen Reagor has had a difficult start to his career since the Philadelphia Eagles made him a first-round draft choice out of TCU in 2020.
