The New England Patriots made drastic changes to the organization over the second consecutive offseason in 2025.
Patriot owner Robert Kraft admitted that these changes were necessary as New England appears to be a candidate again.
“The last two years have been the worst year of my 31-year ownership,” Kraft said in a discussion with ESPN’s Adam Schefter at Fanatics Fest over the weekend. “We have to change that.”
The Patriots have posted a total of 8-26 records over the past two seasons, changing coaches after each campaign. The 4-13 finish of the 2023 season was the job of franchise legend Bill Belichick, and Jerrod Mayo became one-time coach after recording the same mark in 2024.
Craft believes new coach Mike Vrabel will achieve better results and stabilize the franchise. He believed that Vrabel “really connected with the players” and “doing a great job” over the first six months with the team.
Kraft also expressed confidence in the offseason moves that the Patriots have made to bolster their roster. He praised the team for landing “many great veterans” and introducing strong draft classes to compensate for those big money acquisitions.
The Patriots spent a lot of time upgrading their roster. New England paid more than $360.8 million on its free agent deal, according to Spotrac.com. It was $95.2 million more than the Minnesota Vikings, the league’s most and the second-highest spender.
Thanks to these improvements, Craft believes New England is on the right track. It makes him “very excited for the upcoming season.”
“I’m going to have fun this year,” he said. “i promise.”
