Secretary of the Navy Ray Mabus was a guest on "The Dan Patrick Show" on Thursday, speaking about rookie Keenan Reynolds of the Baltimore Ravens, and he added further context to the status of second-year New England Patriots long snapper Joe Cardona.
"He played last year while he was on active duty because he was able to work them both out. He's [now] been assigned to a ship, and he's going to report to that ship, so he may have to leave the Patriots for a year or so to go fulfill that role," Mabus said on the program.
