Patriots cornerback Malcolm Butler has learned a hard lesson about life in the NFL.
Butler was late for the first practice in the final phase of organized team activities May 26 because he missed a flight on the way to Boston due to weather issues. He was held off the practice field for nearly three weeks, according to a team source. Butler attempted to fly into Boston the day before OTAs, but the weather-related issues pushed his arrival into the next day.
Butler is supposed to be back on the field today as the Pats hold their 10th and final OTA workout and and head into next week’s minicamp.
