The New England Patriots did not even have to touch the ball offensively to score their first touchdown of Sunday’s game against the Buffalo Bills. Jalen Reagor took a kickoff return 98 yards for a touchdown on the very first play of the game.
The kickoff return was Reagor’s first touchdown as a member of the Patriots. He was able to fly past Buffalo defenders and give New England momentum early on in the game.
It was quite the start for New England, as the defense was able to hold Buffalo to a field goal on the subsequent possession. New England is looking for their second win in a row against Buffalo, and the strong start should certainly aid in that goal.
Reagor was off to the races 🏁

It will be interesting to see how large this touchdown looms in the course of what could be a great defensive battle.
