Stephon Gilmore's comments last week apparently left a sour taste in Bill Belichick's mouth.
The Panthers cornerback said last Wednesday he was unhappy with how the New England Patriots handled his quad injury prior to trading him to Carolina on Oct. 6.
"I wasn’t ready at the beginning of training camp, I’ll be completely honest with you," Gilmore said. " ... I didn’t like how they handled my situation with my injury. A lot went on with that that I didn’t agree with."
Belichick was asked Monday morning what he thought Gilmore meant by those comments, and the Patriots head coach gave a pretty candid answer.
