New England Patriots defensive lineman Davon Godchaux is entering a contract year for the most cap-rich team in the NFL.
He is seeking a contract adjustment, according to Patriots coach Jerod Mayo, and he could be using a unique approach to get it. Players holding out for new contracts is a yearly occurrence in the NFL, but one has to wonder if Godchaux might be doing the complete opposite and holding in.
The veteran defender was present at the start of mandatory minicamp on Monday, but he did not stretch or participate in team drills, per Boston Herald’s Andrew Callahan.
