If she wasn\u2019t as good with that type of stuff, I\u2019m sure it would be a lot more difficult. But she\u2019s a rock star.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Of course, Campbell attended LSU with Ashlynn\u2019s brother Garrett before Campbell was taken with the No. 4 overall pick in the 2025 NFL Draft.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Garrett Nussmeier was drafted by the Chiefs in the seventh round of the 2026 NFL Draft.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Garrett\u2019s and Ashlynn\u2019s father, Doug, played in five games with the Saints over his two seasons in the league after playing his college ball at Idaho.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Campbell\u2019s Patriots do have a game against Nussmeier\u2019s Chiefs in 2026, but the Saints are not on New England\u2019s

bounce back after a tough finish to the 2025 campaign.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">He was solid for most of the regular season before he <a

possibility the Pats insert him at left tackle if Campbell struggles.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">That said, considering the high draft pick the Pats used on Campbell, he\u2019s going to get every opportunity to right the ship on the left side.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"New England Patriots left tackle Will Campbell is officially engaged, and
