Overview

• After finishing last year with 28 sacks, New England has nine through two games in 2025, including a game-clinching takedown in Miami.
• PFF charts the rebuilt front near the league’s top through Week 2, with 36 total pressures, a top-10 pass-rush win rate, and a top-6 pass-rushing grade.
• Milton Williams posted two sacks and five pressures against the Dolphins, ending the game by dropping Tua Tagovailoa on fourth down.
• Williams said he and Harold Landry called an on-field stunt for the decisive play, with Landry also producing a critical late sack and 10 pressures over two weeks.
• Despite the improved rush, coverage issues persisted in the Miami win, as Tagovailoa completed 81% of his passes for 315 yards.
