Safety/cornerback Minkah Fitzpatrick said his role against the visiting Patriots this week will be different than the previous week, when he played 12 snaps at slot cornerback, four at boundary cornerback, seven on the defensive line (in an edge role) and 26 snaps in the box, as a linebacker.
“We had discussions on a different role,” he said, adding this role likely would change again for the Dallas game in Week 3.
Is he at peace with all of this?
“Just got to do my job,” he said.
He said his role changing week to week was the plan all along, not the byproduct of Sunday’s defensive meltdown. For competitive reasons, he obviously cannot discuss his new role.

The Dolphins could consider moving Kenyan Drake before the trade deadline.
Drake and Fitzpatrick both said Wednesday that they have not requested trades.
