Backup center Ben Brown is the only former Seattle Seahawks player on the New England Patriots roster ahead of the teams’ Super Bowl LX matchup.

Patriots starting center Garrett Bradbury spent the entire 2024 campaign positioned literally right in front of Seahawks quarterback Sam Darnold, however, as the pair played with the Minnesota Vikings.

“He’s awesome. He’s a really talented player. We all saw that when he got to Minnesota,” Bradbury said of Darnold on Thursday, according to a report by MassLive’s Karen Guregian. “He’s a great friend. I’m really happy for his success. But at the same time, it’s ‘Us vs. Them’ in the Super Bowl.”

Bradbury was asked if he might be able to provide any valuable information about Darnold to New England defenders before the big game but largely dismissed the idea.

“If they have any questions about him, I’m happy to help,” the lineman said. “But the coaches have done a great job all year. I’m certainly here, but I’m sure they’ll figure all that stuff out with their film study.”
