The New England Patriots’ cornerback group took several hits during the 2023 season, and somehow still managed to play competitively down the stretch. Turning the page to 2024, however, the group is in a position to rebound: several key players are set to return, with some others added to the mix as well.
The result is a group that has equal parts potential and uncertainty. If its members do live up to what they have shown in the past, though, the cornerback position could turn into a defensive strength despite a lack of household names.
Depth chart
The Patriots currently have 11 cornerbacks under contract, but they have never shied away from moving players all over the secondary if need be.
