Not directly. Patton served as a diversion in England to keep the German 15th Army tied down at Pas de Calais by making them think he would be crossing that point to invade Europe. An entire U.S. army group was built around Patton called the First U.S. Army Group (FUSAG) with all the "equipment" and "men" that would compromise an U.S. Army Group. This further reinforced Hitler's belief that Patton would be crossing the channel at the narrowest point so he didn't authorize the movement of the 15th Army. By the time he realized that the allies main thrust was at Normandy, it was too late for the 15th Army to be of any help and as a matter of fact, it suffered huge casualties trying to reinforce the German forces at Normandy.
