FOXBOROUGH, Mass. -- Quick-hit thoughts and notes around the New England Patriots and NFL:
1. One thing Patriots players were buzzing about this week, and truly seem to enjoy, is the NFL Next Gen Stats that track their top speed during games. While Devin McCourty reaching an NFL-high 22.05 miles per hour on his 84-yard interception return was the headline Monday night against the Bills, not be overlooked was 280-pound defensive end Adrian Clayborn being clocked at 19.5 mph on the play -- which is impressive given his size.
