The New England Patriots conclude their 2025 regular season on Sunday when they host the Miami Dolphins.
The Dolphins don’t have much to play for having already been eliminated from the playoffs. But New England can still clinch the top seed in the AFC with a win over Miami and a Denver Broncos loss to the Los Angeles Chargers.
The Patriots could also get healthier going into Week 18 with the potential returns of Will Campbell, Milton Williams and Kayshon Boutte.
MassLive will have full coverage from Gillette Stadium beginning pregame until the final whistle.
