Matthew Judon joked about it during his Thursday press conference, but the New England Patriots secondary is not yet at a point where he will need to cover Miami Dolphins wide receiver Jaylen Waddle on an island. That said, things are certainly far from ideal.
As a look at the team’s injury report on Thursday shows, it is down four defensive backs. Not only was safety Adrian Phillips a new addition with an illness, the team also was without cornerbacks Jalen Mills (groin), Jack Jones (knee) and Marcus Jones (concussion) for a second straight day.
