The New England Patriots close out their 2023 preseason schedule with a trip to the “Music City” in Nashville to take on the Tennessee Titans.
Last week, the Patriots held on for a 21-17 victory over the Green Bay Packers in a game that was stopped early in the fourth quarter, after rookie cornerback Isaiah Bolden suffered a scary head injury. The Titans, on the other hand, ran the Minnesota Vikings into the ground in a 24-16 win.
The Patriots struggled against the run against Green Bay. So this will be a great test to see how they adjust in this game, especially if Titans backup quarterback Malik Willis is under center.
On the offensive side, Patriots quarterback Mac Jones might be asked to sit this game out due to the offensive line struggles. The team is hoping to see improvement by the regular season opener, when they hopefully get starting guards, Cole Strange and Mike Onwenu, back in the mix.
Here’s how to watch Friday’s game.
