And strangely, Holley is generally given the credit for this when he reported the exact same thing as Banks a day later. It was Banks' scoop.
Butler is a classic Pats-style CB: a healthy Wheatley, a more athletic Samuel. It's certainly plausible.
Personally, I forgot Banks wrote this. Holley gets the credit because he is local (and more people probably heard him say it on WEEI than read Banks' column) and everyone knows he has deep ties within the Pats organization giving what he said more creedance eventhough it was the same report.
