Patriots' Jaylinn Hawkins: Out for Week 6
Hawkins (hamstring) has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Saints, Evan Lazar of the Patriots' official site reports.
Hawkins played through his hamstring injury in New England's Week 5 win over the Bills, recording three total tackles, including 0.5 sacks, across 68 defensive snaps. However, the injury likely worsened during the win, as he began the Patriots' week of practice with consecutive DNPs and has since been ruled out for Sunday's contest. While Hawkins is sidelined in Week 6, Kyle Dugger is expected to step in and start at strong safety.

Patriots' Jaylinn Hawkins: Doesn't practice Wednesday
Hawkins (hamstring) did not participate in Wednesday's practice.
Hawkins was given the green light to play against the Bills on Sunday after working through a hamstring injury during Week 5 prep, and he finished that contest with three tackles (two solo), including 0.5 sacks, and one fumble recovery while playing every defensive snap. The 2020 fourth-rounder is still working through the injury but would likely be cleared to suit up against the Saints on Sunday if he were to practice in full over the next two days.

Patriots' Jaylinn Hawkins: Sits out practice
Hawkins (hamstring) did not practice Wednesday.
Hawkins played just 57 percent of defensive snaps Week 4 after essentially being an every-down starter the first three weeks of the regular season. It appears that change in workload was due to injury, making Hawkins' status unclear for Sunday's road divisional matchup against the Bills. He'll likely need to get back on the practice field Thursday and/or Friday to have a chance at playing Week 5.

Patriots' Jaylinn Hawkins: Impresses in Week 1
Hawkins recorded five total tackles (all solo), including 1.0 sacks, and one interception in Sunday's 20-13 loss to the Raiders.
The 28-year-old safety appears to have emerged as the Patriots' top strong safety after starting just seven of 17 games in his first season with the team in 2024. Hawkins played 100 percent of the Patriots' defensive snaps in Week 1 and made a huge impact, picking off Geno Smith for Hawkins' first interception since 2022. Additionally, Hawkins was one of three Patriots to get to the quarterback Sunday, logging the first full sack of his career. He'll look to build on this impressive defensive performance when the Patriots face the Dolphins in Week 2.

Patriots' Jaylinn Hawkins: Staying with Patriots
The Patriots re-signed Hawkins to a one-year deal Wednesday, per Mike Reiss of ESPN.com.
Hawkins will stay in New England for the 2025 campaign after having racked up 48 tackles (27 solo) and a fumble recovery in 17 games last season. He will likely serve as one of the top backup safeties behind Kyle Dugger (ankle) and Jabrill Peppers (hamstring), and can contribute on special teams as well.

Patriots' Jaylinn Hawkins: Makes seven starts in 2024
Hawkins tallied 48 total tackles (27 solo) and defended one pass over 17 games in 2024.
The California product served as New England's top reserve safety this season, and with Jabrill Peppers (hamstring) missing nearly two months on the commissioner's exempt list, Hawkins had the opportunity start seven games. He was productive during his time on the field, posting the second-highest tackle total of his career while playing 581 defensive snaps. He's now set to become an unrestricted free agent after signing a one-year, $2.9 million deal with New England last offseason. Hawkins is likely to serve as a reserve safety again in 2025, whether with the Patriots or another team.

Patriots' Jaylinn Hawkins: Plays every defensive snap in loss
Hawkins recorded eight tackles (six solo) in the Patriots' loss to the Dolphins on Sunday.
Filling in for an injured Kyle Dugger (ankle), Hawkins made the start and played all 78 defensive snaps versus Miami. Dugger should return at some point in the coming weeks, but with Jabrill Peppers (shoulder) now facing legal issues, Hawkins could get an extended look on the back end. Dell Pettus started in place of Peppers alongside Hawkins against the Dolphins.

The 2020 fourth-rounder did rack up 84 tackles and two picks for Atlanta in 2022, but with the Patriots, Hawkins figures to serve as a depth safety behind Jabrill Peppers and Kyle Dugger.
