Summary

- Patriots add versatile safety and offensive tackle to bolster their roster
As of November 14th, 2025, the New England Patriots have once again emerged as the team to beat in the AFC East. After a season of disarray, the Patriots have hit the mark with their head coach and quarterback, and now look like one of the best teams in the NFL, both in the short and long term.
In contrast, the New York Jets are still searching for their quarterback, a quest that is set to continue into the 2027 NFL Draft. However, the Jets have significant draft capital and a chance to thrust themselves back into relevance. The team has focused on bolstering their defense, selecting linebacker Arvell Reese and defensive tackle Christen Miller in the first round.
The Patriots, meanwhile, have continued to build a well-rounded roster. They've added versatile safety Kamari Ramsey and offensive tackle Max Iheanachor to address needs on both sides of the ball. With their MVP candidate quarterback in place, the Patriots are poised to maintain their divisional dominance.
