New England Patriots at Seattle Seahawks, lost 10–13

September 9, 2026 · Lumen Field, Seattle · 38 of 70 offensive snaps (54%) · 4 of 22 special teams snaps (18%)

Caught a 2-yard pass from Drake Maye with 9:11 left in the second quarter for the first touchdown of the 2026 season, and the first ever scored by a player wearing an NFL Debut Patch. It was his first career reception; he is the 11th Patriot since 1990 to score on his first catch.

Every rookie wears a Debut Patch in his first NFL game. After the game it comes off and goes into a one-of-one autographed card, which Topps has said will appear in sealed products in 2027. When that card is pulled, this page records it.
