New England could be fortunate that the Pittsburgh Steelers are a running team. The Patriots already are low on healthy defensive backs for their game Sunday.
Just two games into the season, the Patriots have five of them listed as questionable, leaving just five not on their injury report.
Last season, the health of the secondary got so bad that wide receiver Troy Brown filled in at cornerback.
"Well," coach Bill Belichick said Thursday, "we know that if we have to put him over there that is an option. That is an emergency measure. Just like last year, we hope that we don't get to that."
