I think Jake will win it
This is about as much competition as Gostkowski had for his job after his rookie season. Julien is trying out for the PS (or another team’s 53).
Yeah… no.
They just gave Bailey a lucrative, multi-year contract extension. Any competition ended as soon as he signed that. Barring an injury, Julien will never see the field in a regular season game for the Patriots.
I wish I knew what criteria PFF used to grade punters.
