Garrett Bradbury, the former starting center for the Minnesota Vikings, faced a tumultuous transition at the start of the new league year, going from a secure position to competing for his spot and ultimately being released. However, his quick signing with the New England Patriots presents a fresh start, as he is now projected to take on the starting center role. Bradbury acknowledged this change as a wake-up call, emphasizing the need to bring his best to every aspect of the game.

The Patriots, now gearing up to protect their new franchise quarterback Drake Maye, drafted in 2024, will be counting on Bradbury to enhance their offensive line in the 2025 season. His previous experience in the league could be invaluable as he transitions into this new chapter and offense.
