The New England Patriots want to leave behind the 2022 NFL season that was deemed a failure for them after closing that year with an 8-9 record and being the second time in three years that they have missed the postseason.

However, Bill Belichick and the Patriots are ready to enter the 2023 season with a new strategy that will include new players and about a dozen drafted players. Most of the players selected in the draft are for the defensive line.

On the other hand, the Patriots are confident that Mac Jones could finally have his best season with the help of two new wide receivers joining a 10-player roster trying to make the 53-man roster.
