FOXBORO — There are just 36 days that separate the Patriots from their preseason and regular-season (Week 3) meetings with the Houston Texans, but Bill Belichick doesn’t think it’s a big deal.
As the Patriots hold their joint practices with the Texans Tuesday and Wednesday in West Virginia ahead of their exhibition on Saturday in Houston, there may be concern in some corners about revealing too much or allowing a future opponent to get a better read on you.
Not for Belichick though. He said that isn’t what this trip is about.
Belichick quickly shut down questions about that in part because of the familiarity between the two teams.
