Patriots' Marcellas Dial: Tending to torn ACL
Dial sustained a ruptured ACL during Monday's training camp practice, Mike Reiss of ESPN.com reports.
It's the worst case scenario for Dial, who will now miss the entire 2025 season as he recovers. As he works toward a return in 2026, his absence could create additional opportunities for rookie seventh-rounder Kobee Minor.

Dial (concussion) practiced in full Friday and carries no injury designation into Sunday's game against the Rams.
Dial was diagnosed with a concussion during the Patriots' Week 10 win over the Bears. He was able to increase his participation across practice this week, and he has been cleared by an independent neurologist ahead of Sunday's game. The rookie sixth-round pick has mostly played on special teams this season and has logged four tackles (two solo) and one forced fumble across 10 regular-season games.

Patriots' Marcellas Dial: New England lands in sixth round
The Patriots selected Dial in the sixth round of the 2024 NFL Draft, 180th overall.
Dial didn't have much hype as a prospect but he's a three-year starter from a strong South Carolina pass defense, and at 6-feet, 190 pounds he has very good athletic traits. Dial's 4.47-second 40-yard dash is solid, but when you account for his reach (32-inch arms) and jumps (40.5-inch vertical, 129-inch broad jump), it's clear that Dial is one of the toolsiest corners in the draft. The Patriots will hope to refine those tools and presumably look to turn Dial into a press-heavy corner on the boundary.
