If Malcolm Butler hashed out any old business or buried any hatchets with Bill Belichick when discussing his potential return to Foxborough, the one-time, once-again Patriots cornerback isn’t talking much about it.
“We just talked about the contract,” Butler told reporters Monday afternoon when asked about his conversation with the coach. “He asked me, was I locked in, was I all in ready to play? I told him, yeah, I am. He said, ‘I know you took a year off and you know the transition’s going to be hard since you took a year off.’ But you know I’m up for the challenge.
