That's good news for the Patriots because, as Mike Reiss notes below, the Patriots will be without corner Brandon Browner for the 1st 4 games and it will be up to Dennard and Logan Ryan to fill in until he gets back. Luckily, the Patriots do have good depth at that position, as Reiss notes, so they should be fine for the first 4 games.

One factor to consider: Patriots will be without Brandon Browner for 1st four games due to suspension. Dennard/Ryan top options to fill void

Patriots top 5 CBs: Darrelle Revis, Brandon Browner, Kyle Arrington (slot), Logan Ryan, Alfonzo Dennard. Good depth at that spot in 2014.
