This week will be interesting against his old team.

Yeah the Patriots cut him but that’s either because he couldn’t learn the system or just wasn’t performing at a high enough level to even earn a spot on a pretty anemic Patriots secondary.

It looks like getting cut by two teams served as a wake up call. That’s a great example for other players out there on all teams lucky enough to get a second (or third) chance!

The Patriots sure as hell don’t.

Dude owned that game.
