2020 NFL Team Preview Series: New England Patriots

It’s a new era in New England after Tom Brady departed to join the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, and post-Brady life for the Patriots is one of the season's biggest stories. For the most part, this offseason looked like previous ones for New England — successful players left, they signed new players to fill specific roles and they went with a high-volume draft approach. Then, they signed free-agent quarterback Cam Newton, increasing expectations with the 2015 MVP at the helm.

The big question is Newton’s health and how he adjusts to the new offense with below-average playmakers.
