The Patriots required a complete roster overhaul heading into the offseason due to underperformance in all three categories during the 2024 season. There was emphasis on improving both offense and defense; however, special teams also underwent a necessary transformation. Coordinator Jeremy Springer, retained from last year's coaching staff, has made a noticeable positive impact, evident during preseason performance. Notably, players such as Marcus Jones and Jeremiah Webb have excelled in return duties, marking a significant turnaround for a unit that struggled in recent years under Bill Belichick's leadership.
"Going into the offseason, the Patriots needed a completely revamped roster from top to bottom, as none of the three groups stood out in a positive manner during the 2024 season."
"A lot of that, if not all of it, can be placed on the shoulders of special teams coordinator Jeremy Springer, who Mike Vrabel chose to keep on staff from last year."
