Observations from 10th practice – New England Patriots Blog – ESPN Boston
Don’t think Tavon has had the camp anyone was hoping for. Could be a dark horse to not make the cut, especially with Duron Harmon getting a long look at safety next to McCourty.
One of the areas where the Patriots struggled last season was with their safeties gaining depth and width in Cover 2, something that eventually improved when Devin McCourty was shifted to free safety. Second-year safety Tavon Wilson has had some struggles during training camp thus far, and it appeared as though he fell victim to a deep pass in Cover 2 on Tuesday. The completion down the right side of the field came behind both him and rookie cornerback Logan Ryan. Not knowing the coverage, it’s tough to say with certainty where the breakdown occurred, but it looked like Cover 2 from afar.
