The New England Patriots return to Lumen Field on September 9 to open their regular season against the Seattle Seahawks. The matchup arrives seven months after the Seahawks held the Patriots to 13 points in their Super Bowl LX victory. Left tackle Will Campbell remains a central figure for New England after struggling during that championship game, where he allowed 14 quarterback pressures. Offensive coordinator Josh McDaniels dismissed concerns about Campbell’s performance, characterizing the second-year player’s offseason as normal development rather than a recovery from a single poor outing. The coaching staff emphasized that Campbell, who played through a knee injury last season, has maintained a positive mindset throughout his second training camp. New England previously confirmed that Campbell would retain his starting position at left tackle.
