That&#8217;s not the person I know, that&#8217;s not the young man that I&#8217;ve gotten a chance to spend time around the last couple of years. I understand that narratives are made up of different people&#8217;s opinions, different people&#8217;s experiences with a person or with an organization or whatever it may be. You can&#8217;t control those narratives. People are going to interpret events the way that they interpret them, and, you know, I think we can&#8217;t concern ourselves too much with that because whatever we say is not going to change what people think or say about any particular player on this team. That&#8217;s our quarterback, I have a lot of respect for him, I support him.&#8221;<\/span><\/em><\/div>\n<\/blockquote>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\" lang=\"en\" data-testid=\"tweetText\">\n<div style=\"width: 788px;\" class=\"wp-video\"><video class=\"wp-video-shortcode\" id=\"video-115571-1\" width=\"788\" height=\"363\" preload=\"metadata\" controls=\"controls\"><source type=\"video\/mp4\" src=\"https:\/\/www.clnsmedia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/38bohVvkmcNkt9QY.mp4?_=1\" \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.clnsmedia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/38bohVvkmcNkt9QY.mp4\">https:\/\/www.clnsmedia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/38bohVvkmcNkt9QY.mp4<\/a><\/video><\/div>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\" lang=\"en\" data-testid=\"tweetText\">Coach Bill Belichick was asked by <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/DakRandallNESN\">NESN&#8217;s Dakota Randall<\/a> on Wednesday if he had any issue with what Jones did on the play: &#8220;I&#8217;ll leave it to the officials to officiate the game,&#8221; Belichick said. &#8220;Doesn&#8217;t really matter what I think.&#8221;<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\" lang=\"en\" data-testid=\"tweetText\">\n<p>Does he think that Jones sometimes gets too close to the line?

Obviously I have respect for everybody around the league and it takes a lot to get to this league. I know there&#8217;s really good players out there and we&#8217;re all playing hard and trying to win, so, at the end of the day you have to keep that in mind. It&#8217;s a game.
