During the first 18 seasons of Bill Belichick’s tenure as head coach of the New England Patriots, the team blocked only two punts during the regular season or playoffs with none of them being turned into a touchdown. Over the last two years, however, the Patriots have found more success attacking the punter: not only were three punts blocked by the team since the 2018 season, it also was able to score on two of them.
The latest touchdown came on Sunday against the Buffalo Bills, when cornerback J.C. Jackson blitzed off the edge to get in front of punter Corey Bojorquez.
