With Flutie's retirement Monday 22 years after winning the Heisman, Cassel moves up to the No. 2 spot behind Tom Brady, at least for now. Coach Bill Belichick hasn't said whether he'll bring in a veteran quarterback or told Cassel what to expect.
"I'm not going to say that I've started a bunch of games and I've proven myself because that's definitely not the case," Cassel said. "All I can say is that, if ever given an opportunity, I have prepared myself enough to be competitive and go out and win ball games."
