One high-profile Patriots exit is still very much top of mind, even as the dust from this week’s Matthew Judon trade has not yet settled.
During an in-game preseason interview Thursday as New England battled Philadelphia, reporter Steven Burton pressed Patriots running back Rhamondre Stevenson about “the guy who just left,” and “who’s gonna step up in his place,” referring to Judon, who landed with the Falcons on Wednesday following an offseason filled with contract drama.
Stevenson, however, seemed to believe Burton was referencing another recently departed Patriot: former head coach Bill Belichick, who left the organization after the 2023 season.
