In a recent loss to the Jacksonville Jaguars, Patriots' head coach Mike Vrabel made the decision to bench veteran wide receiver Morgan Moses for rookie Caleb Lomu in the second half. Vrabel's choice was made to provide Lomu, a 2026 first-round draft pick, with playing time, according to Boston Herald reporter Andrew Callahan. This move occurred during a game where the Patriots' offensive struggles were evident, as they failed to score and ultimately lost the contest 35-6.
Quarterback Drake Maye, who finished the game with 199 passing yards and two interceptions, was also replaced by backup Tommy DeVito. The situation is dire for the Patriots, who have a 1-2 record at this point in the season.
