The Minnesota Vikings originally selected Lowe in the sixth round (No. 184 overall) of the 2022 NFL Draft. After appearing in four games as a rookie, he was traded to New England in August 2023 in exchange for a 2024 sixth-round pick.
Lowe (6-5, 315) spent the past three seasons with the Patriots, primarily serving as a swing tackle.
During the 2025 season, Lowe appeared in all 17 regular-season games and made four starts at left tackle. He was part of an offensive line that helped New England reach Super Bowl LX.
Although primarily a reserve for much of the season, Lowe logged 318 offensive snaps and contributed on special teams. He also appeared in all four of the Patriots' postseason games.
Over four NFL seasons, Lowe has appeared in 46 games with 25 starts. His career résumé includes a notable 2024 campaign in which he started 13 games and recorded his first NFL touchdown—a four-yard reception against the Los Angeles Rams.
