FOXBORO, Mass. — The New England Patriots don’t seem to be very bothered that Cary Williams is coming to Gillette Stadium for joint practices on Tuesday.
The Philadelphia Eagles cornerback called the Patriots “cheaters” in an interview with CSN Philly. He didn’t back down from those comments when questioned about them by the News Journal last week.
Patriots head coach Bill Belichick chose not to comment when asked about Williams’ claims.
“You should talk to him about it,” Belichick flatly said on Monday at Gillette Stadium before Patriots training camp practice.
Patriots guard Logan Mankins claimed he hadn’t heard Williams’ comments, but he said he’s not worried about them.
“I don’t even know what he was saying,” Mankins said. “I’m sure it wasn’t the smartest thing in the world what he said, so I’m not worried.”
The Eagles and Patriots will hold joint practices on Tuesday and Wednesday before their preseason game at Gillette Stadium on Friday.
