The New England Patriots are maintaining their special teams starters for the 2026 season, following a successful 2025 campaign under head coach Mike Vrabel. Kicker Andy Borregales and long snapper Julian Ashby, both drafted in 2025, aim to build on their rookie performances, while punter Bryce Baringer seeks to overcome past inconsistencies, particularly during the playoffs. Special teams coordinator Jeremy Springer emphasizes Baringer’s potential for improvement, focusing on technical coaching to enhance his accuracy. With all key players under 28, the Patriots are optimistic about their special teams’ future.
