Jerod Mayo has a unique way of keeping Christian Barmore involved with Patriots

Christian Barmore’s status for the 2024 season remains up in the air, but whether he makes an impact on the field for the Patriots or not, Jerod Mayo is making sure he still has a solid connection to the team.

Barmore, known around the team as a bit of a comedian, has been tasked with bringing a lighter atmosphere to Friday afternoons in Foxborough. Mayo calls it “Friday Funny.”

“Friday Funny” takes place during New England’s defensive meeting each Friday. Barmore is tasked with playing a video to generate some laughs for his fellow defensive teammates, as the Patriots complete final preparations before game day.
