I wonder if he admired the attention to details of other teams recorded walkthroughs and playcall signals…

Imagine that… A player wanting to play for a coach that makes roster moves that actually are designed to help the team win each week

Good that Tiquan demonstrates a great understanding of the game even if the outraged fans jealous of the Patriots cannot.

That is called maturity. Good reminder of how to look at things.

He’s probably afraid that if he criticizes Belichick Tedy Bruschi will track him down and beat the crap out of him.

Well, at least he has that AFC Champions ring that SB losers get. Any one of us would love to have earned even 1 of those, even though it’s not a SB ring.

He’ll be at worst Tampa’s number 4 receiver. He’s been the best receiver in camp not named Jackson or Williams. His attitude definitely makes me hope he gets a shot, he sure deserves it.

Wow… talking about taking the high ground… but I agree about what he says about the rooster and where you are on the depth chart… he couldn’t get it done. That speaks volumes because the Pats (welker excluded) had really crappy wide receivers last year.

And he loved the family atmosphere in NE.

Underwood is a good kid…glad he’s catching on in Tampa. Hopefully he can make his way onto the full time roster. He’s got an attitude that coaches love to have on the team and that will serve him well.

Good luck to him!

Underwood can always say to his grandkids, If the Patriots would have kept me then they would of won the Superbowl, I could have made the catches that Welker dropped, the Pats messed up by releasing me.

But you Know you Tiquan was happy as hell when the Patriots did not win it lol. If he would of been cut and they won and he didn’t get a Ring that would always stick with him, the fact they didn’t is much more satisfying. Karma

Boy, Schiano sure has collected a lot of his former RU guys down there in Tampa. Rutgers couldn’t even win a title in the lowly Big East… How will that help Schiano in the pros?

We’re not bitter about all those wide open passes he dropped either. Best of luck.

You can’t play in a Super Bowl if you’re not on a team. Underwood was a productive receiver in college; granted he was playing across from Kenny Britt and also benefitted from having Ray Rice in the running game. He’s definitely talented enough to be a role player somewhere, and obviously playing for his former college coach is an obvious fit. Hope he catches on in Tampa, he’s definitely got his head screwed on better than Britt.

I liked him when he was with the Jags, he was just inconsistent. Good luck

He may not be a top tier receiver but the man is all class. Good luck in Tampa High Top.

I think every team should want someone on their roster that thinks and responds that way.

I wouldn’t play poker with this guy.
