Cooper &#8211; USA TODAY Sports<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>3) Patriots defensive back Malcolm Butler spoke to the media for the first time since his return on Monday, with the veteran defensive back talking about his return to the team.<\/p>\n<p>The discussion about what happened that fateful night against the Philadelphia Eagles in the Super Bowl was limited, with Butler not saying much other than admitting that it was in the past and he was focused on the future.<\/p>\n<p>As it is, he&#8217;s coming off of a season away from football, which listening to Butler it sounds like he needed some time to get some things in order personally, which seems to have him in a better place mentally.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Bill Belichick always says, &#8216;Do what&#8217;s best for the team.&#8217; At that time, I think I did what&#8217;s best for me and my family,&#8221; explained Butler.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;If you&#8217;re not prepared mentally, you can&#8217;t do anything physically, so, I think I made the right decision by doing that.\u00a0 And I came out of retirement because I love the game of football.\u00a0 I love the game and I&#8217;m blessed to have another opportunity to play, thanks to the Patriots.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Obviously, given everything that transpired, his return certainly came as a surprise to most of us, with Butler even admitting he was surprised the Patriots were interested.\u00a0 But one thing he said, and we know this because the mystery was really never solved, was that he handled everything &#8220;like a grown-up&#8221; and it left an unexpected door open for him to have another opportunity to continue his career.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I didn&#8217;t expect to come back to New England, but I always had respect for the New England Patriots, Mr. Kraft, Jonathan Kraft, Bill Belichick,&#8221; said Butler.\u00a0 &#8220;And one thing I learned, man, you never burn your bridges down.\u00a0 You handle situations as a man, and as a grown-up.\u00a0 If I didn&#8217;t do that, I don&#8217;t think I would have had an opportunity to come back here.\u00a0 So I&#8217;m pretty sure I made a good decision by acting like a grown man.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>As for what it&#8217;s been like to be back in the building, he said very little has changed.\u00a0 The demands remain what they are, and he&#8217;s just glad to be a part of it again.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;It felt like, I was here yesterday, to be honest.\u00a0 One thing I know about the New England Patriots, the hard work is still here.\u00a0 I&#8217;m pretty sure I&#8217;m going to sleep well tonight.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I miss it, I enjoy it, I&#8217;m here to help the team.\u00a0 My role is going to be whatever I make it.\u00a0 I&#8217;m here to help the team, I&#8217;m here to lead, I&#8217;m a veteran, and I&#8217;m going to do whatever to help the team.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>4) Peter King had an interesting bit in his Football Morning in America column from Monday, with King getting an opportunity to talk to Duke basketball coach Mike Krzyzewski.\u00a0 Krzyzewski, who recently retired, talked a little bit about how he changed his approach as he got older, with some of the changes he made sort of going along with the various things we&#8217;ve seen from Belichick in recent years here in New England.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAs I got older,\u201d <a href=\"https:\/\/profootballtalk.nbcsports.com\/2022\/04\/11\/bill-belichick-coach-k-dwayne-haskins-nfl-fmia-peter-king\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>Krzyzewski said<\/strong><\/a>, \u201cI allowed more input of expression of teaching from my staff, from the people around me. I was able to see and feel their hunger. I allowed them more opportunity but the person who got more was me. Because I got more of them. \u2026 Their ownership of what you\u2019re doing is deepened. The best way to get ownership is to use someone\u2019s ideas or give them the ability, the responsibility. Like in talking to my team and how you, before a game, set up a scout. As I got older, I allowed more and more, more and more. I learned more. It\u2019s a different music, a little bit different music that occurs.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019ve always felt Bill had a curiosity about the game. It wasn\u2019t what he already knew. It was what he was still going to learn and how he was going to use what he knew in the ever-changing environment that he\u2019s in. He\u2019s very adaptive. He\u2019s probably learned to use the talents of the people around him even better. Like, the former Detroit Lions head coach [Matt Patricia] And how he\u2019s using him. It\u2019s different than his past, right?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>That certainly seems to be the approach and it paid dividends last year both in the draft and in other areas.\u00a0 You would think that coaches like Belichick and Krzyzewski would have a tough time giving up control, but it appears that both have known when to start expanding the responsibility of the guys around them.\u00a0 It&#8217;s clearly worked out in their favor for many of them, with the Patriots seemingly seeing a plethora of coaches go on to larger roles thanks to the team&#8217;s success.<\/p>\n<p>Nevertheless, hearing Krzyzewski give his thoughts was interesting, and certainly seems fitting.\u00a0 For a guy who may have now entered his 70s, Belichick still looks younger than a lot of the guys around the league and if he&#8217;s planning on stopping anytime soon, it definitely doesn&#8217;t appear that way.<\/p>\n<p>5) Down in Tennessee, they had an interesting development after quarterback Ryan Tannehill wasn&#8217;t on hand for the first day of voluntary workouts.<\/p>\n<p>Tannehill is reportedly looking for a contract extension that hasn&#8217;t materialized yet, which seems to be potentially the reason why he might have opted to not show up.<\/p>\n<p>He&#8217;s scheduled to make $29 million this season, but his future beyond 2022 appears to be a question mark.<\/p>\n<p>The veteran quarterback saw his team make an early exit from the postseason after being knocked out of the Divisional round by the eventual AFC Champions, the Cincinnati Bengals, marking the second time his team failed to advance in the playoffs.\u00a0 He threw three interceptions in that game, with the final one coming in the waning moments as the Titans tried to get into field goal range trailing 19-16.<\/p>\n<p>That one stung as it capped off a frustrating outing for the veteran, who walked off the field that day to a chorus of boos and set up an offseason full of questions.<\/p>\n<p>While it&#8217;s a little early to read too much into it, it doesn&#8217;t change the fact that he&#8217;ll likely be under some serious pressure this season as the AFC landscape has changed quite a bit.\u00a0 Worse yet, Tennessee&#8217;s window is likely closing and how far they can go will clearly depend on whether or not he can get back to playing at the level they need him to play at.<\/p>\n<p>So far, he hasn&#8217;t been able to come through when it matters most, which could be why the Titans have yet to make a decision about his future.\u00a0 Tannehill might be looking at his entire body of work and pondering holding out, but in a &#8220;what have you done for me lately?&#8221; league that is the NFL, the chances of that working out in his favor probably aren&#8217;t very good.<\/p>\n<p>As a result, it remains another interesting situation to follow and given the crazy things that have happened the last couple of offseasons, it&#8217;s entirely possible this one could get interesting before it&#8217;s over.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Patriots news and NFL notes for Tuesday April 18, 2022.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":39086,"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":[21909,34,2041,324,2306,2010,522,1455,55,2292,22892,22894,22234,22046,2163,2075,2019,22507,2013,1426,2305,2310,22508,2303,22264,15,22895,1695,44,379,22665,22588,22587,310,326,22592,1857,22591,22717,22893],"class_list":["post-40483","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-patriots-news","tag-adrian-phillips","tag-bill-belichick","tag-byron-cowart","tag-cincinnati-bengals","tag-dalton-keene","tag-damien-harris","tag-david-andrews","tag-deatrich-wise-jr","tag-devante-parker","tag-devin-asiasi","tag-devine-ozigbo","tag-drew-desjarlais","tag-henry-anderson","tag-j-j-taylor","tag-jabrill-peppers","tag-jakob-johnson","tag-jakobi-meyers","tag-jalen-mills","tag-jarrett-stidham","tag-jonnu-smith","tag-josh-uche","tag-justin-herron","tag-kendrick-bourne","tag-kyle-dugger","tag-mac-jones","tag-malcolm-butler","tag-mike-krzyzewski","tag-nelson-agholor","tag-new-england-patriots","tag-philadelphia-eagles","tag-quinn-nordin","tag-rhamondre-stevenson","tag-ronnie-perkins","tag-ryan-tannehill","tag-tennessee-titans","tag-tre-nixon","tag-ty-montgomery","tag-william-sherman","tag-yasir-durant","tag-yodney-cajuste"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v27.4 (Yoast SEO v27.4) -
