The New England Patriots have been going through a frustrating rebuilding process ever since quarterback Tom Brady left, but for the first time since then, they may be seeing a glimmer of the light at the end of the tunnel.
They seem to believe they have found their next franchise quarterback in Drake Maye, the No. 3 overall pick from the 2024 NFL Draft who took over in Week 6, and second-year cornerback Christian Gonzalez may be developing into a star.
Veteran safety Jabrill Peppers could be another cornerstone for the Patriots moving forward, but earlier this season, he was arrested on charges reportedly including strangulation and drug possession.
As a result, he was placed on the commissioner’s exempt list, but he has now been reinstated by the league.
