Patriots Eye QB Depth in 2026 Draft

The Patriots are looking to add a third quarterback in the 2026 NFL Draft, targeting young talent such as Baylor’s Sawyer Robertson and Georgia Tech’s Haynes King for developmental roles.

The Patriots, following the departure of veteran backup Joshua Dobbs, plan to add a third quarterback during the 2026 draft weekend. Head coach Mike Vrabel said the team will seek a young player to develop, potentially adding him to the 53‑man roster or practice squad. Candidates include Baylor’s Sawyer Robertson, a 31‑touchdown passer with strong athleticism, and Georgia Tech’s Haynes King, a speedy runner with 37 rushing touchdowns.
