FOXBOROUGH, Mass. -- Those looking for a snapshot of how the New England Patriots manage potential distractions, there were two hard-to-miss examples that unfolded Monday.
With a larger than normal media crowd on hand (it’s the playoffs, after all), cornerback Stephon Gilmore was asked about how the team addressed the media firestorm that had generated from the prior three days.
“What report?” Gilmore asked.
“The ESPN report on Belichick, Kraft and Brady,” a reporter responded.
“I don’t know,” Gilmore responded.
