My GOD! I can't believe most of you have put ANY validity behind this story. It was written by Ben F*cking Volin. The only Patriot beat reporter who has fewer sources inside Gillette than me.....and I have NONE!
This is the SAME Ben Volin who, one the same day that the Texans called off the chase, reported that "the deal was done, and Casserio was DEFINITELY going to Houston". Now you want me to believe that for the rest of this year Casserio will be another "disgruntled" Patriot employee. When will you learn.
ANYTHING that starts with the term "as reported by Ben Volin" needs to be immediately redacted. PFT should know that by now...,and so should the rest of you. Until someone with legitimate (read as real and not imaginary) reports this, its a non-story, fake news, or however you want to call it.
BTW- notice that not a single other beat reporter has written anything even similar. They are all to busy snickering behind Volin's back.
