The New England Patriots play their penultimate game of the regular season on Sunday when they take on the New York Jets.
New England will try to remain perfect on the road in its final game away from Gillette Stadium as well as do its part to try to clinch the AFC East.
The Patriots can become division champs with a win over the Jets and a Buffalo Bills loss to the Philadelphia Eagles.
It’s possible the Patriots get a boost on defense with the return of Milton Williams. The star defensive tackle returned to practice this week for the first time since being placed on injured reserve with an ankle injury.
MassLive will have full coverage from MetLife Stadium beginning pregame until the final whistle.
