Can the ‘Standouts of Summer’ be Stars of the Patriots Future?

With their initial 53-man roster set, the New England Patriots are set to open the 2021 regular season. In one week, the Pats will host the Miami Dolphins at Gillette Stadium in Foxboro, Massachusetts. As both teams prepare for their 4:25pm showdown on Sunday, September 12, the collective eyes of Patriots fans will be the team’s marquee names. Quarterback Mac Jones, tight ends Jonnu Smith and Hunter Henry and linebacker Matt Judon are among the newcomers that should command much attention. Incumbents such as Damien Harris, Dont’a Hightower, James White and J.C. Jackson among others will also catch the eyes of the fanbase, as well.
