@shalisemyoung: league source says Sebastian Vollmer has a foot injury but it is not considered serious #patriots
@DougKyedNESN: I can't see Aaron Dobson making his preseason debut on Friday night. He's only participating in drills and 7-on-7s right now.
Along with information reported elsewhere, about Chris Jones and Sealver Siliaga's sprains, a news pattern is emerging.
It would appear that the Mediots are finally learning how to dig out and get injury information, without wasting time asking Belichick in a Press conference, where he won't answer.
Bill learned the hard way in Cleveland, with those Press jackals, that saying what the injury appeared to be, and the usual length of time to return, just wetted the appetites of the Mediot jackals. They would prognosticate, rumor that it was more serious, and being suppressed in a cover-up. Then they would criticize if the recovery took longer than anticipated, hinting a confirmed cover-up, or a lazy player, yadda, yadda, yadda.
BB sees no reason to get into that game any longer. Plus it may just really deny intelligence to his opponents.
BTW, What did you think of Schlecter's revelation that BB refused all offers for Mallett and wanted him as a fully trained backup QB. BB said he was too valuable to the Patriots, and would refuse anything other than a First Round pick, and possibly that too, depending on Polo's progress? In any case Mallett is not on the market, now.
