His teamates seem to sense what is coming, or more to the point not coming. And have some incredible comments about his career, especially Brady. He will only sign here but at 36 there is no indication that here will sign him. Although with the 90 man rosters I wouldn't be surprised to see him signed for TC for competitive (mentoring) purposes if he continues to just hang it out there. Would probably have to be with an understanding that he retire rather than force a cut if and when the time comes because they are probably reluctant to put themselves in a place where they'd have to cut the best third down back ever.
Curran: When it mattered, reliable Faulk was ready
“Greatest” doesn’t fit. Neither does “most explosive” or “most versatile.” All those things are too subjective. But when one says “successful,” measurables are entered into the conversation. Statistics. Championships. Years served.
And those are the things that set Faulk apart from the other electrifying players who served in similar roles.
What sets Faulk apart from all of those guys, though, is his longevity and his championships. Only Meggett played in close to as many games of import. And he was never the full-on offensive focal point Faulk was when the Patriots needed plays made.
“I get chills thinking about Kevin and thinking about the plays he’s made over the course of his career,” said Brady. “The moments against the best players in the biggest games."
