For the seventh straight year, New England Patriots players, coaches and staff are participating in the NFL's 'My Cause My Cleats' campaign. The annual initiative gives teams the opportunity to wear unique, customized football cleats that are specifically designed to help promote and provide awareness to causes that are important to them. The Patriots wore their custom cleats during Thursday Night's game against the Buffalo Bills. Select player cleats will be auctioned off on the Patriots eBay account. 100% of the funds raised will go to the cause/nonprofit that the players has represented.
