Andy Borregales Coming Off Strong Rookie Season
Borregales is coming off his first NFL season with the Patriots after being selected in the sixth round of the 2025 NFL Draft out of Miami.
The kicker quickly won New England’s starting job and appeared in 17 games during his rookie season. Borregales finished the year making 27 of 32 field goal attempts while also converting 53 extra points.
He also helped the Patriots reach Super Bowl LX during his first NFL season.
Before arriving in New England, Borregales built an impressive college career at Miami, where he became one of the most reliable kickers in the country and left the program as the Hurricanes’ all-time leading scorer with 405 total points.
