New England Patriots - NESN.com
The New England Patriots found a way to win once again in Week 10, as they picked up a hard-fought 28-23 victory over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers to give them their seventh-straight dub. The vibes were high after the game, as indicated by linebacker K’Lavon Chaisson.
One of the more overlooked success stories in New England this season, Chaisson has paired up with Harold Landry III to form a top-tier pass-rushing duo for the Pats’ defense. After taking down Bucs’ quarterback Baker Mayfield on Sunday, Chaisson is up to 6.5 sacks on the season, which is already a career-high for him.
With Chaisson continuing to pressure opposing quarterbacks, the Patriots’ defense has been able to complement its explosive offense. After the game, Chaisson had a fired-up reaction that showed just how hyped he was to be back in the win column.
“Make ’em count,” Chaisson said as he walked off the field. “Road warriors, baby. Let’s keep going.”
After signing a one-year, $3 million contract in free agency over the offseason, not much was expected of Chaisson entering the 2025 season. Through nine games, though, he has quickly turned himself into a crucial piece of the team’s defense.
New England will have to turn the page quickly because it has a short week on its calendar. The Patriots are set to square off against the New York Jets on Thursday Night Football in Week 11, with the team aiming to pick up its eighth straight victory.
