Default Defensive Back article

It's getting tougher to tell the safeties from the cornerbacks on the New England Patriots.

Eugene Wilson has been working mostly at cornerback after starting at safety for them during his other three pro seasons. Randall Gay has played both spots. Artrell Hawkins, primarily a cornerback during his first seven seasons, started at safety after the Patriots signed him last Nov. 16.

That's the versatility coach Bill Belichick wants in a secondary where injuries last year forced him to juggle whatever healthy pass defenders he had.

I like our depth and versatility in the defensive backfield.

We've avoided the big money Primadonna CB's and I still feel we can cover and hit.
