My knee is pretty jacked up. I could go out and run right now and it would feel great, but if I would compound five days a week, two weeks, three weeks . . . I don\u2019t feel like dealing with that. I\u2019ve gone past the fence.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>As for whether or not coaching might be in his future, it doesn&#8217;t sound like that&#8217;s going to be in the cards, either.\u00a0 Edelman pointed out that the time commitment is more than he&#8217;s willing to make, especially given the time away from family that coaches sacrifice.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI put 14 hours a day in as a player, then you see coaches that probably put in another five hours,\u201d Edelman said. \u201cWhen you\u2019re leaving the facility and you\u2019re seeing the coach in the parking lot with his family in his car, who had to come see him at his little dinner break before they have 9 o\u2019clock [meetings]. I\u2019ve seen guys playing catch with their kids in the parking lot.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI can\u2019t do that, and that\u2019s why you tip your hat to guys in New England that have put in so much time.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>4) Julio Jones going to the Titans will certainly have an impact on the Patriots, who will face Tennessee in Week 12 at home at Gillette Stadium.<\/p>\n<p>The Titans acquired him in a trade over the weekend, adding to a pretty talented Tennessee team that finished the 2020 season 11-5 before getting knocked out by the Ravens in the Wild Card round.<\/p>\n<p>The deal cost Tennessee a 2022 second-round pick as well as a 2023 fourth-round selection.\u00a0 Atlanta did include a 2023 sixth-round pick to the Titans in exchange for the receiver, who will have to undergo a physical to complete the trade.\u00a0 According to SI&#8217;s Albert Breer, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.patsfans.com\/patriots\/blog\/2021\/06\/07\/patriots-never-had-serious-interest-in-julio-jones-not-a-surprise\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>the Patriots were apparently never in the mix<\/strong><\/a>, with Breer reporting that the club &#8220;never showed real interest to Atlanta&#8221; for his services.<\/p>\n<p>When healthy, Jones is definitely dangerous and he&#8217;s been tough for the Patriots to defend.\u00a0 In their previous meeting in 2017, Jones caught 9 passes for 99-yards including a touchdown in a match-up at Gillette Stadium, and many will obviously recall the game during the Super Bowl comeback win over Atlanta where he also caught 4 passes for 87-yards.<\/p>\n<p>He&#8217;s a dangerous player and we&#8217;ll see how well they&#8217;re able to deal with him this time around.\u00a0 \u00a0However, it doesn&#8217;t change the fact that the transaction added a bit to the level of difficulty the Patriots are already facing heading into 2021.<\/p>\n<p>5) Peter King was asked by someone about the fact that people like Bill Belichick and other coaches who have brought family members into their staff, which is making it tougher on minority coaches (and non-minority candidates with more experience) to land a position.<\/p>\n<p>King pointed out that since most teams are family-owned, <a href=\"https:\/\/profootballtalk.nbcsports.com\/2021\/06\/07\/aaron-rodgers-packers-compromise-nfl-fmia-peter-king\/?cid=nbcsports\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>it&#8217;s not that difference from many other businesses<\/strong><\/a> that are made up that way.<\/p>\n<p>From King:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>First, I\u2019m not applauding Belichick for having his sons on the staff. I\u2019m simply acknowledging that Belichick would probably feel good about being able to get them started in a business they both want to work in. Whether they succeed or fail ultimately will be up to them. You could argue\u2014and many would\u2014that it\u2019s unfair for a head coach to put his kids on the coaching staff. But Don Shula\u2019s kids, Bill Belichick\u2019s kids, Mike Shanahan\u2019s kid, Pete Carroll\u2019s kids, Mike Zimmer\u2019s kid\u2014they all get an unfair edge. For lots of team owners, it becomes a family business, just like family businesses outside of sports.<\/p>\n<p>Isn\u2019t that the way of the world? Don\u2019t law firms look kindly on the law school-grad kids of their partners? Did John David Washington get his foot in the door in Hollywood because he\u2019s the son of Denzel? Don\u2019t many universities open the admissions door wider for legacies? In politics, the Romneys, Bushes and Cuomos all have been able to smooth the way for their sons into politics. The NFL for years has had a nepotism problem when it comes to coaches. But because in most places the head coaches control the makeup of the coaching staff, and because owners don\u2019t feel it rises to an offensive level, they just let it go.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Again, it remains to be seen long-term if Belichick&#8217;s children will be able to both prove themselves and maintain the level needed in the NFL, but the fact they&#8217;re both on the staff isn&#8217;t exactly a surprise.\u00a0 While the argument can be made as to why they shouldn&#8217;t be there, the results, for now, speaks for themselves.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>New England Patriots News and NFL Notes for Monday, June 7, 2021.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":34033,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[10],"tags":[422,315,34,661,855,2013,17,424,22264,44,326],"class_list":["post-37083","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-patriots-news","tag-atlanta-falcons","tag-baltimore-ravens","tag-bill-belichick","tag-brian-hoyer","tag-cam-newton","tag-jarrett-stidham","tag-julian-edelman","tag-julio-jones","tag-mac-jones","tag-new-england-patriots","tag-tennessee-titans"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v27.4 (Yoast SEO v27.4) - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-premium-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Daily Patriots News and NFL Notes: 5 Things to Know - 6\/7<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"New England Patriots News and NFL Notes for Monday, June 7, 2021.\" \/>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/www.patsfans.com\/patriots\/blog\/2021\/06\/07\/daily-patriots-news-and-nfl-notes-5-things-to-know-6-7\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Daily Patriots News and NFL Notes: 5 Things to Know - 6\/7 | PatsFans.com\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"New England Patriots News and NFL Notes for Monday, June 7, 2021.\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:url\" content=\"https:\/\/www.patsfans.com\/patriots\/blog\/2021\/06\/07\/daily-patriots-news-and-nfl-notes-5-things-to-know-6-7\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:site_name\" content=\"PatsFans.com\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:publisher\" content=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/pfans\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:published_time\" content=\"2021-06-07T14:50:23+00:00\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:modified_time\" content=\"2021-06-07T14:53:32+00:00\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:image\" content=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.patsfans.com\/patriots\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/USATSI_15369660_168390408_lowres.jpg?fit=1500%2C956&ssl=1\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:width\" content=\"1500\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:height\" content=\"956\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:type\" content=\"image\/jpeg\" \/>\n<meta name=\"author\" content=\"Ian Logue\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:card\" content=\"summary_large_image\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:creator\" content=\"@ianlogue\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:site\" content=\"@patsfans\" \/>\n<script type=\"application\/ld+json\" class=\"yoast-schema-graph\">{\"@context\":\"https:\\\/\\\/schema.org\",\"@graph\":[{\"@type\":\"NewsArticle\",\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/www.patsfans.com\\\/patriots\\\/blog\\\/2021\\\/06\\\/07\\\/daily-patriots-news-and-nfl-notes-5-things-to-know-6-7\\\/#article\",\"isPartOf\":{\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/www.patsfans.com\\\/patriots\\\/blog\\\/2021\\\/06\\\/07\\\/daily-patriots-news-and-nfl-notes-5-things-to-know-6-7\\\/\"},\"author\":{\"name\":\"Ian Logue\",\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/www.patsfans.com\\\/patriots\\\/blog\\\/#\\\/schema\\\/person\\\/2785562a57e86e99346895c90e0f5459\"},\"headline\":\"Daily Patriots News and NFL Notes: 5 Things to Know &#8211;
