Mike Onwenu Slams ‘Ridiculous’ Report From Ex-Patriots Staffer

New England Patriots offensive lineman Mike Onwenu is currently being tasked with yet another position change, but this one has been different from those in years past.

Onwenu is being forced to answer questions about a ridiculous report regarding the whole thing.

Michael Lombardi, who was an assistant to Bill Belichick from 2014-2016, said on the "GM Shuffle" podcast that Onwenu had put on weight and that it led to his move from tackle to guard at the start of training camp.

"They signed Michael Onwenu and wanted him at right tackle but he gained 80 pounds, so they gotta move him to guard," Lombardi said.
