Minnesota Vikings

Lowe was drafted by the Minnesota Vikings in the sixth round, 184th overall, of the 2022 NFL draft.[3] As a rookie, he appeared in four games.[4]

New England Patriots

Lowe was traded to the New England Patriots on August 28, 2023, in exchange for a sixth-round pick in the 2024 NFL draft.[5][6] Following an injury to Trent Brown, Lowe made his first career start at left tackle for the Week 2 Sunday Night Football game against the Miami Dolphins. In the Patriots' 2024 Week 11 loss to the Los Angeles Rams, Lowe lined up as an eligible receiver and caught his first NFL touchdown, a 4-yard pass, from quarterback Drake Maye.[7]
