Sometimes, coaches trying to make life difficult for players during practice can go a little too far.
This was essentially the point of a humorous anecdote shared by former Patriots defensive coordinator Matt Patricia during a media availability on Tuesday at the NFL’s annual meetings. Patricia was asked by NBC Sports Boston’s “The Camera Guys” for a “good practice story” about retired tight end Rob Gronkowski.
“I mean I probably have a couple of them,” Patricia responded. Eventually, he focused on one in particular.
Lions head coach Matt Patricia has great story from his Patriots coaching days.
