Fresh off clinching a playoff birth with a come-from-behind victory on Sunday Night Football, the 12-3 New England Patriots are back on the road to take on the 3-12 New York Jets.
As New England is looking to end the year perfect on the road, they will need to survive without a handful of regular starters — which could thrust rookies such as Kyle Williams, Efton Chism III, and Bradyn Swinson into larger roles on both sides of the ball.
Follow along live down below throughout Sunday’s contest.

Live score: Patriots 7 : 0 Jets
Sunday, Dec. 28, 1 p.m. ET | MetLife Stadium, East Rutherford, NJ | Broadcast information | Inactives | Game day roster
First Quarter
The Patriots lost the coin toss which led to Drake Maye and the offense taking the field first Sunday. A good return by D’Ernest Johnson started the unit shy of midfield before a second-down completion to Stefon Diggs found New England in Jets territory. A 24-yard run by Rhamondre Stevenson and contested catch by Hunter Henry moved the unit inside the five, where Maye’s next pass went to Austin Hooper for a touchdown. [Patriots 7 : 0 Jets]
