Jerod Mayo and New England Patriots players are ignoring the noise, including that which stemmed from former head coach Bill Belichick.
Belichick took a shot at his New England successor the day after Mayo said the Patriots have a “soft” football team. While Belichick’s comments made headlines outside of One Patriot Place, players including Kyle Dugger, Marte Mapu and Anfernee Jennings told reporters they didn’t hear them.
Others did. But they’re not putting much thought into them.
“I don’t think Bill means no harm,” Davon Godchaux told reporters at Gillette Stadium on Wednesday, per MassLive’s Mark Daniels.
