Some Patriots news and NFL notes on this Friday:<\/p>\n
1) It’s amazing how a recent interview with ESPN writer Seth Wickersham has stirred up old reports and making them seem new, which is causing everyone to rehash an old topic.<\/p>\n
The interview in question came as Wickersham recently sat down for a podcast with Missouri reporter Harrison Vapnek<\/strong><\/a>, who asked him about the infamous report<\/a><\/strong> from 2018 where Wickersham had reported on the internal issues that went on in New England, which reportedly caused a rift between Robert Kraft, Bill Belichick and Tom Brady.\u00a0 Those problems also included the circumstances surrounding the Jimmy Garoppolo trade during a tumultuous 2017 season, which Belichick was reportedly reluctant to do.<\/p>\n Wickersham then mentioned that the Patriots head coach was apparently unhappy enough to explore potential openings in Washington and the Giants, as well as Miami, although he also spoke of it as if it was old news.<\/p>\n For those who might remember, that news actually came out in January of last year with a report from then NBC Sports Boston’s Gary Tanguay, which set off a firestorm of people who were shocked at this apparent revelation.<\/p>\n As I reported on #ArbellasEarlyEdition<\/a> Tom Brady and his family are making preparations to move once the school year is over. And Belichick inquired about coaching jobs in Washington and NY after Jimmy G. was traded. @NBCSBoston<\/a> @NBCSCameraGuys<\/a><\/p>\n — Gary Tanguay (@Gary_Tanguay) January 17, 2020<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n
