From Bill Burt:
Waters on GRONK (from Reiss):
[BTW: GRONK's 49-yarder against the Redskins was NFL Live's #10(!) play of the year. Someone watching it said "He should have charged for that ride." But such is GRONK's generous nature: he'll drag DBs around for free. ]
Waters admits he gets calls from some of his "buds" in the NFL inquiring about the "Patriots mystique" and, of course, the head coach.
What does he tell them?
"I tell them the truth, that this is a place every player should experience," said Waters. "I tell people a lot is expected of you here. You had better have the right attitude and put in the work or you won't last."
Waters on GRONK (from Reiss):
Waters: Hard not to feel good for Gronkowski. Curious how some teammates view tight end Rob Gronkowski? Here is what veteran offensive lineman Brian Waters responded when asked about Gronkowski setting the NFL record for receiving yards by a tight end: "You really don't try to focus on individual things, but you're definitely excited for a guy like that. All he does is come and play football. There have only been a few people in my life that you never see a sad face on them at all [and] every time I see the guy he's smiling. You wonder why he's smiling, you wonder what's going on in his head, but the guy is always in a good mood, he's always happy. He loves football and that's something you can be excited about."
