The New England Patriots finally have dates next to the opponents they'll be playing later this year after Wednesday's official 2025 NFL schedule release. There is more optimism surrounding the team this year with the hiring of Mike Vrabel as the new head coach and the many roster moves the team has made this offseason.

The Patriots used the opportunity of the schedule release to start a competition between four players in the egg drop challenge.

The New England Patriots will have a triple threat of primetime games for the 2025 season.
