Patriots announce their schedule for the 2019 season
Baker Mayfield and Odell Beckham Jr. are coming to Gillette Stadium on Oct. 27.
The Patriots revealed their schedule for the 2019 regular season.
New England will open their Super Bowl title defense against the Pittsburgh Steelers on Sept. 8. The Sunday Night Football matchup will be one of five primetime games for the Patriots.
Bill Belichick and Co. then go on the road for the first of three straight AFC East contests. New England will play each divisional opponent twice — in addition to one game against each of the AFC North and NFC East teams, as well as the winners of the AFC West and AFC South.
That means the Cleveland Browns, complete with Baker Mayfield and Odell Beckham Jr., are coming to Gillette Stadium on Oct. 27. The schedule also features a rematch of last season’s AFC Championship Game, when the Patriots welcome Patrick Mahomes and the Kansas City Chiefs to Foxborough on Dec. 8.
The Patriots close out the regular season with home games against the Buffalo Bills and Miami Dolphins.
