K.J. Osborn addressed trade rumors after social media post sparks speculation

Patriots receiver K.J. Osborn addressed a social media post on Wednesday that led coach Jerod Mayo to say Osborn is “probably frustrated” in his role.

Osborn posted a screenshot of a text message from sports agent Brandon Abdala congratulating him for his perseverance during the Patriots’ trip to London.

According to Abdala’s text, the Patriots told Osborn on Wednesday that he would be inactive for the game but ended up notifying him that he would play the night before.

Abdala told Osborn he was proud of the way he handled the situation and the way he played in the game.
