FOXBOROUGH, Mass. -- It has been said that playing for the New England Patriots under coach Bill Belichick is like earning an advanced degree in football. For kicker Stephen Gostkowski and a couple of teammates, they have taken the education theme one step further.
They're not far off from earning a master of business administration degree.
"When you have little kids, and you're in this environment, you're sort of doing the same thing over and over again. So I was looking for something that would challenge me and something that would obviously help me going into the future," said the 34-year-old Gostkowski, who is the second-longest tenured player on the team.
