That\u2019s a blue-collar guy. Head down, working. Everything Will do is about work. Hard work. That\u2019s a guy that\u2019s going to do everything right. <\/p>\n<p class=\"nesn-in-content-ad__copy\">Story continues below advertisement<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI know you all can tell by his voice, he\u2019s going to be a 10-year vet. By his voice, he\u2019s got one of those 15-year player voices already. He\u2019s just one of those guys that you got that\u2019s just going to keep his head down and work and just handle his business.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>Campbell said he is <a href=\"https:\/\/nesn.com\/2025\/04\/will-campbell-ready-to-fight-and-die-for-drake-maye-patriots\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">ready to \u201cfight and die<\/a>\u201d in a Patriots uniform and is highly regarded as a culture builder and consummate leader.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s easy to see why Swinson is glad to be teammates with Campbell again. And Swinson has no problem following Campbell to New England. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cJust to be on the same team with Will again, is just \u2014 he\u2019s an amazing player,\u201d Swinson said. \u201cIt\u2019s right back to battling how we used to do in the old days.
