Devin McCourty wasn't happy about playing cornerback against the Saints on Saturday night.
"I hope it's not permanent," he said after the game.
Paul Perillo of Patriots Football Weekly agrees with McCourty, and thinks it's bad news for the Patriots secondary if he is their best option to fill that spot.
"I think that he is a really good safety. I think he is a below average corner," said Perillo. "I don't think it's good for the team if he has to play corner… If McCourty has to play cornerback because he's one of the best you have, I think you're in trouble."
