If Dugger is unable to suit up in Week 6, expect Jaylinn Hawkins to serve as New England's top strong safety.

  • Patriots' Kyle Dugger: Makes strides in coverage

    Dugger finished the 2021 regular season with 92 tackles and four interceptions in 15 games. The 2020 second-rounder produced at a rate that led to a degree of fantasy utility and is slated to remain a key cog in the Patriots' secondary next season. Per Paul Perillo of the team's official site Dugger, who is signed through 2023, made strides in coverage in his second year (as a pro), but he still has some room for growth in his game in terms of overall consistency.
