Left tackle Will Campbell: Before suffering an MCL sprain in Week 12, Campbell strung together a solid start to the season. According to Pro Football Focus, he allowed five sacks (two against Myles Garrett, who set the NFL record for sacks in a season) and 25 pressures through the team’s first 12 games. But the playoffs told a different story for Campbell, who struggled against the Chargers’ Odafe Oweh in the wild-card round and the Texans’ Will Anderson in the divisional round. Then, against the Seahawks’ pass rush in the Super Bowl, Next Gen Stats attributed 14 pressures to Campbell.

The grisly postseason performance marred an otherwise promising rookie year. It’s important to remember that Campbell just turned 22 last month. He also said his knee was not 100 percent upon his return in Week 18. The Patriots are hopeful Campbell will improve with experience and strength training. If he doesn’t take a step forward next season, a move to left guard deserves more serious consideration.

Get Starting Point

A guide through the most important stories of the morning, delivered Monday through Friday.

Running back TreVeyon Henderson: Henderson’s performance also dipped in the postseason — he averaged just 2.5 yards per attempt on 30 carries — as the Patriots relied more on Rhamondre Stevenson. But there are plenty of reasons for optimism. Henderson rushed for four touchdowns of more than 50 yards during the regular season, tying Saquon Barkley for the most such scores by a rookie since 2000. On his 55-yard touchdown in Week 10, Henderson registered the sixth-fastest maximum speed by a ball carrier this season (22.01 miles per hour). His breakaway speed and explosiveness are apparent. The goal would be to improve his blitz pickup and overall per-play efficiency next season.

Wide receiver Kyle Williams: Williams is another speedster, reaching a top speed of 21.78 m.p.h. in Week 10 this season. He didn’t establish a consistent role, catching just 10 passes on 21 targets for 209 yards and three touchdowns. At times, it looked as though he wasn’t on the same page as quarterback Drake Maye. As of now, Williams appears to be a big-play threat able to separate downfield. He also can return kickoffs.

Even if Williams is in line for more targets next season, the Patriots remain in need of a reliable go-to guy for Maye and should want to upgrade their receiver corps.

Left guard Jared Wilson: The playoff woes were not limited to Campbell, as Wilson also looked overmatched on multiple occasions. In the Super Bowl, Seahawks rookie defensive end Rylie Mills bull-rushed Wilson right into Maye and took down both players for a 10-yard loss. When the Patriots drafted Wilson, they were open to having him play left guard or center. But executive vice president of player personnel Eliot Wolf said he thinks “center’s ultimately going to be his best position.” Garrett Bradbury remains under contract through the 2026 season, though the Patriots can cut him to free up $5.7 million in salary-cap space while creating just $1.2 million in dead money. It will be interesting to see whether the Patriots feel compelled to move Wilson to center now or hold off for another year.

Safety Craig Woodson: The Super Bowl was Woodson’s best game. He was everywhere, registering a team-high 10 tackles, including three for loss, and breaking up two passes. Woodson played a team-high 93.2 percent of the defense’s snaps during the regular season, and only missed 12 defensive snaps during the postseason.

Despite some struggles in coverage — he allowed six touchdowns during the regular season — Woodson improved as the season went on. Coach Mike Vrabel has spoken highly of Woodson’s availability, coachability, and consistency. With a decision looming on Jaylinn Hawkins, the Patriots should feel confident in Woodson as half of their starting safety duo next season.

Defensive tackle Joshua Farmer: Farmer’s season ended on injured reserve (hamstring) in December, so he did not take a snap during the playoffs. During the regular season, he played 28.8 percent of the defense’s snaps, finishing with 15 tackles and a fumble recovery. The Patriots liked Farmer’s ability to rush the passer and defend the run coming out of college, so he should have an opportunity to earn a bigger role next season.

Edge rusher Bradyn Swinson: Swinson was among the initial roster cuts at the end of training camp, which was somewhat of a surprise as a fifth-round pick. He played just 27 defensive snaps this season, with 26 coming against the lowly Jets in Week 17. The Patriots are in desperate need of another edge rusher, especially with K’Lavon Chaisson’s looming unrestricted free agency, Swinson could fight for significant snaps next season despite barely playing as a rookie.

Kicker Andy Borregales: After a rocky Week 2, in which he missed two point-after attempts, Borregales was perfect on extra points for the remainder of the season. He converted 31 of his 38 field goal attempts (81.2 percent), which ranked in the middle of the league pack. is longest make was from 59 yards.

Tackle Marcus Bryant: Bryant was the first tackle off the bench when Morgan Moses was sidelined in Week 12, but then he never saw the field again. He should remain in the mix as a backup by the sheer need at the position. If Vederian Lowe and Thayer Munford sign elsewhere, Bryant would be the next man up as a swing tackle.

Long snapper Julian Ashby: The punting and kicking operation seemed to be in good hands with Ashby, although he did commit three false starts — the most among long snappers.

Cornerback Kobee Minor: Minor spent the vast majority of the season on the practice squad, before getting signed to the active roster on Jan. 1. It would be surprising if he carves out a meaningful defensive role.
