The New England Patriots’ preseason game against the Philadelphia Eagles started in the worst possible fashion.

After already suffering some losses in last week’s preseason opener, the New England Patriots offensive line took another hit against the Philadelphia Eagles on Saturday.

Entering their preseason game against the Philadelphia Eagles fresh off a pair of joint practices, the New England Patriots are expected to give their starters some rest.

Patriots 2026 scouting report for ED Elijah Ponder

The New England Patriots entered the 2025 NFL Draft facing significant questions at multiple positions, including the defensive edge. However, their investments were relatively minimal. In fact, their best contributions from a rookie edge last season came not from a draft pick but an undrafted free agent. Heading into his second season in the league, […]

Patriots News: Pats-Eagles scrum it up in spirited session

Patriots-Eagles joint practice was a complete success. I liked that both teams are strong and good foils for the other. It feels the team can learn more from these past two sessions than it will when the teams face off Saturday night for their preseason Week 2 matchup. Another positive was seeing the controlled feistiness […]

The Patriots have found their commander in the secondary

Had it not been for Drake Maye and A.J. Brown, the biggest story coming out of their first joint practice with the Philadelphia Eagles on Wednesday would have been the New England Patriots’ ability to create turnovers on defense. No player was better in that regard than Craig Woodson. The second-year safety ended the session […]

On Thursday, the commencement of the New England Patriots’ joint practice marked the end of a two-day session with the Philadelphia Eagles, where New England’s defense secured seven interceptions across both workouts.

Patriots quickly turning page after first Eagles joint practice

The New England Patriots ended their first joint practice with the Philadelphia Eagles on a high note. Not only did their offense score a field goal during a two-minute segment late in the session, their defense also prevented the opponent from putting any points on the board. But while the players involved can feel good […]

Christian Barmore is not happy to just bring pressure. He wants sacks.

Christian Barmore was one of the most disruptive interior defensive linemen in the NFL last season, but you wouldn’t know it looking at his sack count. In a combined 21 regular season and playoff games, he had only three quarterback takedowns despite also registering 55 other pressures. Entering into 2026, the goal is therefore clear: […]

Jacas recorded a tackle shortly after. “I think that it needs to be […]
