Patriots safety Kyle Dugger took responsibility for his role in the play that left Seattle receiver DK Metcalf wide open for an early 56-yard touchdown that changed Sunday’s game.
“We were in max blitz coverage, and it was just a bad read by myself,” Dugger said. “They caught us in a call that was kind of problematic.”
Christian Gonzalez said it was a “miscommunication” between him and Dugger that allowed Metcalf to sprint up the seam and past them for the Seahawks’ first score of the game.
“You can’t hide that in the secondary,” Gonzalez said.
