When former BYU linebacker Kyle Van Noy was traded from the Detroit Lions to the New England Patriots, his NFL career hit a resurgence that’s included winning a Super Bowl with the Patriots.
Last Thursday, Van Noy noted on Twitter that it was the two-year anniversary since that trade while also giving a hashtag hat tip to two people who helped make it happen, New England coach/GM Bill Belichick and owner Robert Kraft.
Happy anniversary to me and my trade day! What a day that turned out to be! #blessing #thanksbilltrill #thanksbob #champ

While Van Noy struggled to find consistency in Detroit, he's become a starter in New England and last week scored his first NFL touchdown off a blocked punt.
