Summary

In this episode, we get to know the Patriots' newest LB, the 55th overall pick in the 2026 NFL Draft, Gabe Jacas. Phil Perry talks with Illinois HC Bret Bielema about Jacas’ “desire to be great,” then catches up with former Patriot James White—who spent time coaching at Illinois—about why Mike Vrabel and the Patriots will love Jacas' fit in this defense.
