Saturday’s Patriots win was significant in that it secured the team a first-round playoff bye, but it was important, too, because it allowed the team to honor Robert Kraft.
Kraft’s wife, Myra Hiatt Kraft, lost her battle with cancer this past July, and the team dedicated its season to her. On Saturday, after the Patriots beat the Dolphins, head coach Bill Belichick presented Kraft with the game ball, and 11-year veteran Matt Light presented Kraft with a painting of Patriots players huddled together, pointing to the initials “MHK.”
The team released video of the emotional scene, as seen below.
