The Patriots’ secondary took a big hit this week.
New England cornerback Marcellas Dial Jr. was carted off the field Monday after tearing his ACL during training camp and will miss the rest of the season, the team announced Tuesday.
The injury adds to what has been a tough summer for the Patriots’ cornerback unit.

All-Pro corner Christian Gonzalez suffered a hamstring injury in late July, while free agent addition Carlton Davis III has been in and out of practice with an undisclosed injury.
