As the NFL universe marches closer to the start of the upcoming 2022 season, the New England Patriots’ ‘powers that be’ continue to do their due diligence in building their roster. Though many key veterans have been retained, New England has been relatively quiet when it comes to signing players from outside the organization. In the meantime, both conference and division rivals continue to stockpile big-name acquisitions; thus winning the headline war throughout the first week of the new league year.
Still, championships are not won in the month of March. While the allure of introductory press conferences and jersey photo ops can be fun, the true measure of success for any team’s offseason cannot be determined until meaningful games are played on the field.
