New England Patriots

One of the most successful NFL teams in the history of the league is the New England Patriots. The team, once known as the Boston Patriots, established in 1960, had to wait until the mid-1980s to get the first taste of playing in the Super Bowl. While they did find some playoff success in the mid-1990s, which included a second Super Bowl trip, they had to wait until the turn of the century to get their first-ever victory in the Super Bowl. New England competes in the East division of the American Football Conference in the NFL. The Pats play their home games at Gillette Stadium, Foxborough.

The Patriots have appeared in the Super Bowl 11 times, the most by any team (as of May 2025), and came out on the winning side in 6 of those occasions. Former head coach Bill Belichick and the legendary quarterback Tom Brady formed the most successful partnership for the Greater Boston club as they managed to get on the big stage 9 times and brought home the Lombardi trophy 6 times, since they joined in 2000. The Patriots' historic run of two decades (2001-2019) is recognised as one of the greatest sports dynasties.

The New England Patriots' offseason moves demonstrate the faith the franchise and new head coach Mike Vrabel have in their second-year signal caller, Drake Maye. New England was the biggest spender in 2025 free agency, dishing out more than $364 million in total contract value, as reported by Over the Cap.

The latest Pats free agency had Vrabel's fingerprints written all over it as the team signed some marquee names like Harold Landry III, Milton Williams, Carlton Davis, and Robert Spillane on the defensive side of the ball, while also giving Maye a veteran option in Stefon Diggs to serve as a safety blanket for young signal caller. While New England went heavy on defense in the FA, it was a completely different scenario in the 2025 NFL draft. The Patriots went all offense with their first 4 picks in the draft by selecting two offensive linemen (Will Campbell and Jared Wilson), a running back (TreVeyon Henderson), and a wide receiver (Kyle Williams).

New England Patriots Owner

Robert Kraft, owner of the New England Patriots, is the CEO of Kraft Group. He also owns a Major League Soccer team, the New England Revolution. Kraft attended Columbia University on scholarship and also received an MBA from Harvard Business School.

His first try owning a sports team came in 1974 when he became a part-owner of the World TeamTennis franchise, the Boston Lobsters, but soon the team and league folded. Kraft, a Patriots season ticket holder since 1971, purchased his dream team in 1994 for $172 million. Under Kraft's ownership, the Patriots have gone on to become one of the most successful football teams in the history of the NFL. According to Forbes, Robert Kraft has a net worth of around $11.8 billion as of May 2025.

New England Patriots Head Coach

Mike Vrabel, a three-time Super Bowl champion with the New England Patriots from his playing days, will be returning to Gillette Stadium in the 2025 season, but this time as a head coach. This will be his second stint as a head coach after coaching the Tennessee Titans for six years from 2018 to 2023. In his six-year tenure at Nashville, he took Tennessee to the playoffs three times while also leading them to two divisional titles.

Vrabel only had two losing seasons with the Titans. During his time with the Tennessee Titans, he had a 54-45 win-loss record along with an AFC Championship appearance. Vrabel has also brought back a familiar face in offensive coordinator Josh McDaniels, who has previously served as an OC for the Patriots for more than a decade.

New England Patriots Quarterback

The second-year signal caller, Drake Maye, is given the responsibility to bring the Patriots back to winning ways. While Mac Jones was seen as the heir apparent to Tom Brady when the Patriots took him in the first round of the 2021 NFL draft, that experiment didn't work out. New England once again found itself searching for their franchise quarterback in the 2024 NFL draft, when the former North Carolina product fell to them at No.3 pick. The 6-ft-4 signal caller compiled 2,276 passing yards while also adding 421 yards on the ground in his rookie season. Maye is expected to take the next step in his second year with the arrival of Josh McDaniels and the offensive weapons that New England surrounded him with in the offseason.

New England Patriots Mascot

Pat Patriot is the official mascot of the New England Patriots. The live version of the mascot was first introduced in the 1995 Pro Bowl. Pat Patriot is depicted as a soldier of the American Revolution, and he wears a tricorne hat and a Continental Army uniform. The mascot wears the Patriots' home uniform or the away uniform, depending on which uniform the team wears. He wears a jersey with No.1 on it. Previously, he used to wear jersey number 0.
