“You don’t want to play for Bill Belichick”

There have been several rumors sending Lamar Jackson to the New England Patriots since the quarterback requested a trade from the Baltimore Ravens. A former star on the team, however, warned him about head coach Bill Belichick.

Having yet won two Super Bowls under Belichick in his first five seasons in the NFL, Samuel is not a fan of his methods. According to an interview given to Betway Insider in February, the 42-year-old retiree believes that the environment in New England was negative and that Tom Brady is solely responsible for the Patriots’ conquests.

“I remember one day in particular. We had won the game, but he insulted everyone after the game. All walked into the locker room with their heads bowed. I was like, ‘What’s wrong with you? Raise your head. Don’t let that man bring you down. We just won.'”

The Athletic reported Wednesday that Belichick and his gang would no longer be in the hunt for Jackson. The Most Valuable Player of the 2019 season was given the Ravens’ non-exclusive franchise player tag after his trade request.
