NFL analyst Ben Solak forecasts that Jared Wilson will have a breakout season with the New England Patriots in 2026. Following a solid rookie season where he adapted to a new position, Wilson is expected to transition back to his natural center role after the trade of Garrett Bradbury. This change is anticipated to enhance the offensive line's performance and provide better protection for quarterback Drake Maye, who had a successful campaign in 2025. The Patriots' roster improvements aim to position the team for another Super Bowl run.
