Dial played in all 17 games for the Patriots in 2024 before tearing his ACL in August of 2025. The cornerback was attempting to make a return to the franchise in 2026 but will not make the final cut. There is a good chance that if the 2024 sixth-rounder clears Monday's waivers, he will return to the Patriots' practice squad to begin the 2026 regular season.
