The New England Patriots' equipment staff brings out the team's best snacks, including snacks such as Jolly Ranchers, Big League Chew gum, and sunflower seeds. The team's head equipment manager, Preston Rogers, is responsible for prepping everything for practices and games. These snacks are often requested by players such as Charles Woods, who recently earned the nickname "Jolly Rancher" after he asked for candy during a game against the New York Jets.

Rogers' office at the team’s New Balance Athletics Center is surrounded by computer monitors to monitor the orders and requests.
