Dugger provided tight coverage on the first two, then turned an offense miscommunication into an interception on the third.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Easy interception for Kyle Dugger.<\/p>\n<p>Watch on Prime Video<br \/>Also streaming on <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/NFLPlus?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">@NFLPlus<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/bSYWgnRAy5\">pic.twitter.com\/bSYWgnRAy5<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&mdash; NFL (@NFL) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/NFL\/status\/1958700261385675142?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">August 22, 2025<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p>The veteran safety also made three tackles on the series, and he added two more in the 3rd quarter on big hits from depth.<\/p>\n<p>With rumors swirling that the Patriots are shopping Dugger, tonight might help spark serious conversations.<\/p>\n<h3>Ben Wooldridge<\/h3>\n<p><strong>Ben Wooldridge<\/strong> has gotten off to shaky starts in each preseason game, a trend that continued tonight. The undrafted rookie&#8217;s accuracy was sporadic for most of the first half, and he failed to capitalize on two possessions in Giants territory.<\/p>\n<p>But like those other performances, Wooldridge eventually settled into a groove and began picking the Giants apart. The bounce-back began with an excellent two-minute drive. Wooldridge converted three 3rd downs, including tight-window completions to John Jiles and Phil Lutz, and capped the drive with his second perfectly thrown go ball of the series.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Jeremiah Webb hauls it in for the TD! <\/p>\n<p>\ud83d\udcfa: <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/NFLonPrime?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">@NFLonPrime<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/Qk6qbKuorY\">pic.twitter.com\/Qk6qbKuorY<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&mdash; New England Patriots (@Patriots) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/Patriots\/status\/1958704197135696201?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">August 22, 2025<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p>Wooldridge&#8217;s three batted passes gave him five for the preseason, so his release will be a significant area for improvement along with quicker starts. Wooldridge threw a pick-six on an out thrown behind <strong>Jaheim Bell<\/strong>, but it may have been a <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/Giants\/status\/1958717108566552786\">miscommunication<\/a> where the tight-end was expected to sit between zones.<\/p>\n<p>Tonight likely wasn&#8217;t enough to earn Wooldridge a spot as the third quarterback, but there&#8217;s something to work with there. He&#8217;s an enticing developmental player for the practice squad.<\/p>\n<h3>Jeremiah Webb<\/h3>\n<p>Sneaky impressive depth receiver <strong>Jeremiah Webb<\/strong> ended the night with three catches on four targets, totaling 31 yards and a touchdown. Webb caught two passes on New England&#8217;s two-minute drive, separating on an out-breaker and scoring on a well-tracked go ball. He also ripped off his second big return in as many weeks, slipping multiple tackles for 22 yards on a punt.<\/p>\n<p>Webb has impressed in his limited opportunities, both during practice and live action, and would be a great addition to the practice squad.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Javon Baker<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><strong>Javon Baker<\/strong> the receiver didn&#8217;t do himself many favors, dropping a slant and drawing offensive pass interference on a screen (though a high snap may have affected his timing). But it&#8217;s become clear that Baker&#8217;s short-future lies on special teams, and he continued to shine in the game&#8217;s third phase.<\/p>\n<p>Baker drew an unnecessary roughness while working at gunner, then forced a turnover after running his blocker into a punt returner. This comes one week after he helped force a fair catch against the Vikings and two weeks after a two-tackle performance against the Commanders. Baker even returned a kick to start the game, though he&#8217;s unlikely to fill that role with <strong>TreVeyon Henderson<\/strong> and <strong>Antonio Gibson<\/strong> holding down the top spots.<\/p>\n<h3>Marte Mapu<\/h3>\n<p><strong>Marte Mapu<\/strong> missed the Vikings joint practices and game, making this an important night for the converted linebacker. He built on a strong opener against the Commanders with five total tackles and a breakup against the Giants, showing range and competitiveness throughout his time on the field.<\/p>\n<p>Mapu should make the roster as another athletic linebacker behind <strong>Christian Elliss <\/strong>who can also\u00a0contribute as a core four special teamer.<\/p>\n<h2>HURT<\/h2>\n<h3>Cole Strange<\/h3>\n<p><strong>Cole Strange<\/strong> stood out for the wrong reasons tonight. The backup center&#8217;s red zone holding call contributed to New England settling for a field goal. He also had at least one bad snap on a high flick from shotgun, and he was thrown to the ground on a run block. Strange also had two poor snaps at practice this week and hasn&#8217;t gotten opportunities with the starters.<\/p>\n<p>The former first-rounder is looking like a cut candidate after staying in the game later than backup right guard <strong>Sidy Sow<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Andy Borregales <\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><strong>Andy Borregales<\/strong> went 5-5 on field goals in Tuesday&#8217;s practice, but he&#8217;d been inconsistent in previous weeks after a strong start to the summer. The rookie did make a short attempt during the second half, but took a step back in his third preseason game by missing wide right on a 49-yard attempt.<\/p>\n<p>Borregales was known for his big leg coming out of college, but he&#8217;s been shaky on long attempts. There&#8217;s virtually no chance Borregales isn&#8217;t on the Patriots after roster cuts, but the idea of <strong>Parker Romo<\/strong> sticking around can&#8217;t be dismissed.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Jordan Polk<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Jordan Polk has been opportunistic this preseason, as evidenced by his pass breakup on a bobbled target early in the game. Unfortunately, the slot corner was called for holding on two late downs to negate big defensive plays. The first came on a <strong>Jack Gibbens <\/strong>forced fumble<strong> and Jabrill Peppers\u00a0<\/strong>recovery, and the second was negated a <strong>Kobee Minor<\/strong> breakup on 4th down.<\/p>\n<p>Polk was also beaten downfield and missed a tackle in the 4th quarter, with <strong>Marcus Epps<\/strong> narrowly preventing a potential score.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Kobee Minor<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Quarterbacks have picked on <strong>Kobee Minor<\/strong> this preseason, and he&#8217;s been consistently competitive, including a 4th down breakup that was negated by penalty. That said, Winston got the better of Minor on a deep score and 3rd down slant conversion. Minor also could&#8217;ve been more competitive on an earlier go ball that was dropped.<\/p>\n<p>Mr. Irrelevant&#8217;s play-style and fiery demeanor fit the new-look Patriots, but he&#8217;s more of a practice squad player at this point in his career.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Marcus Epps<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><strong>Marcus Epps<\/strong> prevented a potential touchdown by corralling a runaway receiver, but he also allowed two touchdowns. The first was an out route where he failed to recover after losing a step against a tight end on the goal line. On the second, Epps got picked while tracking a tight end slide route across the formation. Epps\u2019 experience is valuable, and he\u2019s been solid overall this preseason, but this was a tough finale.<\/p>\n<h2>Notebook<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Jabrill Peppers<\/strong> played multiple series with the Patriots&#8217; backup defense tonight. It&#8217;s notable that the veteran hadn&#8217;t yet played a preseason game with <strong>Craig Woodson<\/strong> and left the field when the rookie&#8217;s night ended.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Keion White <\/strong>played into the second quarter tonight after losing his starting job to <strong>K\u2019Lavon Chaisson<\/strong>, White was impactful, assisting on two tackles, drawing a hold, and recording an instant pressure, but the usage was concerning for a potential breakout candidate. Defensive coordinator <strong>Terrell Williams<\/strong> and outside linebackers coach <strong>Mike Smith<\/strong> praised White for his play style, athleticism, and intelligence, but noted he\u2019s still learning how to be a full-time edge defender.<\/li>\n<li>The Patriots&#8217; first line featured <strong>Jared Wilson<\/strong> at left guard and <strong>Ben Brown<\/strong> at center. They were replaced by <strong>Caedan Wallace<\/strong> and Cole Strange, respectively. I thought Wilson and Brown might switch spots, but it looks like Wilson may be the team&#8217;s opening day left guard with Brown backing Garrett Bradbury, who did not play.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Patriots&#8217; preseason win streak was snapped tonight, with New England falling 42-10 to the Giants.
