It kind of gets old real fast, you know.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I ain&#8217;t really trying to do that. I&#8217;m just trying to come out here and play football, get ready for this upcoming season, and put our defense and ourselves in a position where we can win the most games or be the most effective.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;So that&#8217;s what I&#8217;m really on right now. I ain&#8217;t worried about holding out, sitting out \u2026 kind of protesting. \u2026 Because that, last year, that stuff was trash. I ain&#8217;t really like that. Like I&#8217;m a football player, I don&#8217;t want to get into the agency side. So I&#8217;m gonna come out here and play some football.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The one positive that came from the discussion is the two sides are apparently not far apart, and it sounds like Judon feels confident things will get worked out.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Bro, I&#8217;m in the building right now,&#8221; <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nfl.com\/news\/patriots-olb-matthew-judon-not-looking-to-throw-tantrums-upon-arrival-to-mandatory-minicamp\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>said Judon<\/strong><\/a>. &#8220;We ain&#8217;t far apart, you feel me? You&#8217;ve seen me with my helmet and jersey on. I&#8217;m not mad.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;So I&#8217;m trying to play football. I want to play football. That&#8217;s what I&#8217;ve been blessed to do. I&#8217;ve been blessed to be really good at it. And so playing football is kind of what I really want to do. The money will come.
