Patriots Optimistic Landry Returns From Nagging Knee Injury

New England Patriots head coach Mike Vrabel expressed strong optimism regarding Harold Landry's recovery from a nagging knee injury as the team looks forward to the upcoming season.

New England Patriots head coach Mike Vrabel praised Landry's work ethic, noting the defensive end's disappointing 2025 season was limited by the injury.

After recording 6.5 sacks before the ailment, Landry managed only two in the final stretch. With key contributors K'Lavon Chaisson and Anfernee Jennings departing, the Patriots are banking on Landry's return alongside new edge rusher Dre'Mont Jones to solidify the defense.
