Summary
- Kicker Andy Borregales switched from No. 36 to No. 8.
- Borregales wore No. 8 for his first-ever football experience.
- He aims to establish himself as the Patriots' franchise kicker.
New England Patriots kicker Andy Borregales is embracing a new identity on the field, officially switching his jersey number from 36 to 8. This decision carries significant sentimental value for Borregales, as No. 8 represents the very first number he wore when he began his football journey. The change comes as the No. 8 jersey became available following the departure of Stefon Diggs.
Borregales aims to cement his role as the Patriots' franchise kicker this season. Despite a challenging preseason opener where he missed three kicks, he has since demonstrated resilience, bouncing back in training camp. His opportunity to showcase his abilities in a challenging environment arrives with the regular season opener against the Seattle Seahawks at Lumen Field.
