The team’s owner says success starts with a coach and a quarterback, and he likes his duo.

Joe Judge and Matt Patricia, former special teams and defensive coaches, will help out offensively this season.

Butler’s first stint with New England ended famously with a mysterious benching during the team’s loss to the Eagles in Super Bowl LII.

Also, cornerback Malcolm Butler is back in New England for a free-agent workout with the Patriots.

The running back has reportedly agreed reach a two-year deal after missing much of last season with a hip injury.

The Patriots are taking a hard look at Chicago’s Allen Robinson for a second straight offseason.

The move frees up more than $4 million in cap space.

Only two members from New England’s early championship teams have been selected for enshrinement in Canton.
