Ben Watson, tight end

Rob Gronkowski is no longer in the fold for New England, but with the way Philly covers at times and seeing as how the Patriots receivers will be an issue all day, there will be opportunities for Ben Watson to make plays. Then, there’s the other thing. There may not be a linebacker or safety on this team that will be able to hold him down for a full 60 minutes.

Stephon Gilmore, cornerback

One of those Belichick-type wrinkles that are being discussed is the possibility that Stephon Gilmore might get Zach Ertz duty. The other guys will have to step up if that’s the case. The question is, if Alshon Jeffery can’t go, who can do that? Dallas Goedert maybe?
