INDIANAPOLIS — Detroit Lions coach Matt Patricia said he has a strong relationship with Malcolm Butler despite the cornerback's benching in the Super Bowl.
But whether that means the Lions will be players for Butler in free agency next month is another story.
Patricia declined to say if he had any regrets about how he handled Butler in the New England Patriots' Super Bowl LII loss to the Philadelphia Eagles, when Butler did not play a defensive snap despite starting 15 regular-season games and the previous two playoff games.
