| Patriots LB Adalius Thomas Disputes Claim That He'll Join The Jets | | |
Patriots linebacker Adalius Thomas, who was not in Foxboro at Gillette Stadium today, has been wanting to set the record straight recent comments made by Bart Scott. The Patriots linebacker disputed the notion that he has a grand desire to play for the New York Jets, as recently described by Jets linebacker Scott and claimed he never made any such intentions known to his former Ravens teammate. "I've heard of all the chatter up there about me," Thomas wrote in the email. "It was about something Bart Scott said on TV, and that's not what was said . I have never told anyone that I wanted to leave and go play for the Jets." Scott had gone on ESPN Radio's "Mike & Mike" show and claimed Thomas had talked about rejoining his former defensive coordinator, Rex Ryan, whom he spent seven seasons with in Baltimore and earned two Pro Bowl appearances before signing with the Patriots. "I have been asked by coaches, reporters, and players, 'where are u going to play next year?' And my response has been I don't know," Thomas wrote. "I'm still a Patriot unless you know something I don't know, but reporters report any type of hype. Not once did anyone of them that had something to say about me, pick up the phone or email and ask if it was what I said," he went on. So I'm a Patriot until otherwise noted from Bill Belichick or the organization."
