Four free agent cornerbacks Patriots could target after Jack Jones arrest

The New England Patriots are suddenly in need of cornerback depth after Jack Jones' arrest last Friday at Logan Airport.

Cornerback was a huge need entering the 2023 offseason, and they addressed the position in a major way by selecting Oregon star Christian Gonzalez with the No. 17 pick in the 2023 NFL Draft. The Patriots were already going to be putting a lot of responsibility on Gonzalez's shoulders going into Week 1 in September -- potentially as the No. 1 cornerback -- and now the rookie will face even more pressure given the team's less-than-ideal depth.
