According to Adam Schefter of ESPN, the New England Patriots have filed tampering charges against the Houston Texans as they are looking to fill their void at the general manager position by interviewing Patriots’ vice president of player personnel, Nick Caserio. The NFL will now have to open up an investigation against the Texans and look into the evidence the Patriots present against the Texans.
However, it is important to remember that this move isn’t necessarily an illegal or unexpected move for the Patriots since they do not want to lose a valuable front office employee like Caserio to an AFC rival without putting up a fight.
