Losing Christian Gonzalez to concussion protocol right before the playoffs is a tough blow for the Patriots’ defense. His lockdown coverage was a huge part of shutting down the Chargers, and now the team has to scramble to fill that gap with backups who haven’t had much time on the field. If Gonzalez can’t clear protocol before next week, the Pats’ secondary could be seriously exposed against teams with strong receivers. It’s a real test for the coaching staff and the depth of the roster. How confident are you in the Patriots’ defense if Gonzalez can’t play? #Sports #Football #Patriots
