Belichick Acknowledges DeAndre Hopkins Patriots Rumors
Mark J. Rebilas-USA TODAY Sports
Patriots head coach Bill Belichick was obviously asked on Monday about the latest DeAndre Hopkins reports that the receiver is scheduled for a visit this week, but as expected, he didn’t offer much insight.
What was interesting was that the New England Patriots coach did actually concede that there had been some contact with him, with Belichick saying, “We talked to him, we’re working through it.”
He did go on to also add that there were some logistical things they were still working out.
“I think it relates more to logistics and things like that,” regarding his uncertainty about the visit. “So, I’m not really a travel agent here. I’m not going to say it’s going to happen here, or not going to happen or whatever.”
“There’s a lot of other stuff going on that I’m not directly involved in, and so I’m not going to say anything and then you turn around and say I misled you in some way because that’s not what I’m going to do.”
Still, the fact he even acknowledged it at all was certainly unusual for someone who normally would have completely brushed off that type of question.
Portions of the above appeared in this morning’s Patriots notebook, which is a daily column that features a variety of news and notes.
