Will Campbell was the New England Patriots' fourth-overall selection in the 2025 NFL Draft. He started the first 13 games of the season at left tackle before a partially torn MCL sidelined him for the remainder of the regular season.

The then-21-year-old rushed himself back for the playoff push, but his play suffered. His dip in effectiveness resulted in Drake Maye taking more sacks en route to a Super Bowl loss than any other quarterback in postseason history.

Fans quickly turned on their starting left tackle, raising questions about whether or not he could hold down the job going forward.

Campbell told reporters that he has been rehabbing his knee five times a week to ensure that he will not let Patriots fans down again.

"I did [physical therapy] five days a week the entire offseason until we got back (April 20)," Campbell said. "Just trying to rebuild the strength in my knee to get it back to where it was previously. And I feel like I did a good job with that."

Campbell told reporters that he feels good, and offered Patriots fans a reminder that this humble writer hopes they will take to heart.

"Nobody’s a finished product," Campbell said. "I’ve worked at everything every day. I’m 22, I’m a long way from where I’m going to be in the future. It’s not like I’m great at everything and here’s one little thing. I’m building everything, every day. And trying to make everything as a whole better."

I'm excited to see Campbell silence the critics in his second year in Foxboro.
