The New England Patriots have new internal tensions after the 40-7 debacle against the Los Angeles Chargers. Patriots head coach Jerod Mayo delivered a stunning reversal involving Rhamondre Stevenson.
Antonio Gibson, not Stevenson, was first set to handle starting running back duties. Mayo confirmed the decision beforehand on the radio. However, Gibson wasn't RB1 after all. Stevenson resumed the role.
Reporters fired off the question: What went into the last minute change for Mayo?
“That was just a coach's decision,” Mayo said, via patriots.com.
Mayo still received a subsequent question about the last-minute move.
