The Patriots added to their secondary this offseason by signing former Detroit Lions defensive back Carlton Davis III, but he too has missed time this summer due to injury.

New England Patriots cornerback Christian Gonzalez reportedly suffered a hamstring injury when he went down at Monday's practice.

With Christian Gonzalez and Carlton Davis both injured, the Patriots got a long look at some of their less heralded cornerbacks in Tuesday’s practice.
