Patriots Retain LB Niko Koutouvides

Pieces moved and game won
FOXBOROUGH - Matthew Slater, who hadn’t taken snaps at safety, even in practice, for two years, started at that position. Niko Koutouvides, who hadn’t started a game in seven years and hadn’t played a snap with the Patriots’ defense this season, was with the first 11 at linebacker. Nate Jones, signed less than a week ago, got a start at safety as well.

While Gary Guyton will get the start and has shown he can step in capably, the Patriots may get contributions...
