This is from his recent Q&A, but I know he also make similar comments upon signing.



The comments are even more interesting when juxtaposed with last year's Spygate episode, when lots of people were questioning whether one of the lingering effects would be other players' perceptions of the Patriots and if it would possibly damage them in player acquisition.

So do you think that Jordan's comments are indicative of what other players around the league still think of the Patriots?

I think most players would feel this way about us... well, most players besides Joey Porter.
