That Jerod Mayo was going to be more tolerant, patient, and let players be themselves.
In short, he was going to be the Cool Mom:
Though a stronger, tougher version.
But so far, we’re getting a different Mayo that we expected.
One with an extremely limited tolerance for nonsense, shenanigans, or even tomfoolery of any kind.
When Javon Baker posted a video his own traffic stop, he didn’t dress for the first game.
I guess beginning with the fact Reagor sees himself as … what?
A high performance luxury sports car?
And the Patriots are a brokeass, run down double-wide in some jerkwater trailer park?
On one level, I guess you’re able to sort of admire the self-confidence.
On the other hand, you have to appreciate the self-own here.
And last season it fell to 30.4%, which he should be able to achieve accidentally.
And still Reagor can’t find a space to park in.
Which would seem to be a Reagor problem, not a Patriots problem.
And releasing him just made that official.
Reports say the snarky, disgruntled post had nothing to do with the decision to cut him.
But reports are always going to say that.
And in the long run, it’ll be a pure positive that he learned from the best.
