This Patriots Defender Playing ‘Everywhere’ In Bid For Roster Spot

FOXBORO, Mass. — Versatility is one of the clearest roads to a roster spot for a New England Patriots player on the fringes of the 53.

Wade, the second-year cornerback New England acquired from the Baltimore Ravens last August, is playing multiple roles in the secondary as he vies to keep his place on the 53-man roster.

“Because of a couple of guys that weren’t able to participate at the beginning part of training camp, he’s played some different positions,” head coach Bill Belichick said before Monday’s practice.
