While Drake Maye is in the MVP conversation, nobody should forget how the defensive line has been able to hold its own end of the bargain. With the Patriots projected to splurge this upcoming offseason, it shouldn’t be a surprise if you see Garrett in New England paired with Milton Williams in 2026.
