We covered late night’s news that Kyle Shanahan’s backpack, with his extensive playbook, concerningly went missing last night. While many have worried that the New England Patriots pulled another trick out their sleeve, security has confirmed it was just an honest mistake.
At some point during media day, Shanahan’s backpack mysteriously went missing for about 30 minutes. There were countless conspiracy theories, as the Patriots have been accused of watching Super Bowl walkthroughs, videotaping defensive signals, deflating footballs, pulling fire alarms at team hotels, and never having a working radio for their opponents’ in Foxborough to talk between coaches and players, among other things I’ve probably forgotten because the list is getting pretty long.
