Cutdown day is Tuesday. Here's my last stab at figuring out how the Patriots roster will settle when the smoke clears.

Veteran kicker Parker Romo had the night off, with rookie Andy Borregales getting the attempts on Thursday. Specifically, he missed a 49-yard field goal after having already missed a 57-yard attempt in Minnesota. Romo had made his 57-yard attempt during the first preseason game.

The New England Patriots got obliterated on the road in Thursday's preseason finale against the New York Giants. They got handed a 42-10 loss at MetLife Stadium in front of a Giants fan base so enthralled by the dominance that they were doing the crowd wave by the fourth quarter.

A Patriots rookie described as "the best person ever" got to perform his dream touchdown celebration Thursday night.

The preseason is over for the New England Patriots, but Mike Vrabel and company have a lot of work to do leading up to Week 1.

Bill Belichick ’s first season leading North Carolina’s football program is drawing near, and the eight-time Super Bowl winning head coach seems to like working at the college level. In an interview with the Boston Globe this week, the former Patriots coach was asked what the biggest difference is between the NFL and his new job.

A do-it-all player during his high school career at Urban Prep-Bronzeville in Chicago, Webb joined the University of South Dakota in 2019 as a two-star recruit. A redshirt as a true freshman who also did not play the following season due to the Covid-19 pandemic, he left the Coyotes after three seasons and only 11 in-game appearances.

A look at the Patriots players who made a strong case for a roster spot in a lopsided loss to the Giants, and a look at a few players who went backwards.
