The depth chart is topped by Christian Gonzalez, Jonathan Jones and Marcus Jones. There are also versatile players capable of contributing at cornerback and special teams, including guys like Isaiah Bolden and rookie Marcellas Dial Jr. The Patriots now have two open spots on their roster after releasing Ford-Dement and linebacker Jontrey Hunter on Monday.
