The reunion of the Patriots and linebacker Brandon Spikes didn’t last very long. Now the Pats face the task of replacing the big, physical Spikes in the lineup while both Jerod Mayo and Dont’a Hightower recover from injuries.
The team released Spikes just a day after a story broke of a vehicle belonging to Spikes was found abandoned and damaged on Rt.495.
An automatic call went out to the Mass State Police thru the vehicle’s On-Star system after the car sustained massive front end damage. The driver of the car reported to On-Star that he had struck a deer on the highway.
