Show Notes
The New England Patriots linebacker and edge defender positions face a shortage heading into 2026, following the loss of key free agents and the release of some players. Despite a strong defense in 2025, ranking eighth in total yards allowed and sixth against the rush, they struggled in the red zone. Bright spots included Robert Spillane and Christian Elliss, but run defense faded late in the season. With several players at contract crossroads, the Patriots aim to upgrade their group, targeting depth in free agency and the draft to push towards elite status.
