Will Tedy Bruschi be cut?

I hope this isn't the case I worry about a little bit as a patriots fan. Have we seen the end of the Tedy Bruschi era here as a member of the New England Patriots. A patriots hall of Famer if ever there was one a guy who's number. Probably will and should be retired by the team when he's done playing a member of three Super Bowl championship teams. And yet -- back on it and and elected we -- back to the Ben Watson analogy here you know where you can't make the club in the top. Tedy Bruschi has has not really been able to participate as much as he'd like and probably as much as the coaches would like in training camp so far. And I wonder. With the depth of young linebackers on this team. And especially. With the possibility that the gonna play more for three even 34 I don't know that that's the case. I'm wondering if Bruce he's gonna have a spot to play here.

wouldn't UC dale. -- Story and what he is done what he's meant this team that. There would be a conversation that it would be at this point like let's see what you got one let's let's work it when they work things out to say. You know what I don't think there's a place here I can't I can't sense anyway that there were beaches that harsh caught. I I you know you know what I mean it's like you know what we. Now maybe they'd they'd they'd been -- a -- on the podium and it have a big farewell but I don't think it would get to this point where at least there's a lot like -- 36 is comin' back for another year. Maybe -- you know. This would be the one area -- I would see Bill Belichick in it and the crafts and everybody just having that kind of you know what this -- different now I thought that about Mike Vrabel low -- output Bruschi had a break as far as you know there -- what he means the hearts of the patriots organization.

But they just had a guy leave who was in the same category as Bruschi and it wasn't Mike Vrabel Vrabel it was brown. Troy Brown was the last guy who is of that caliber you know that. Patriots hall of Famer retire the number do whatever you wanna do you know mr. patriot. And and brown got kind of last year victory two -- type of thing. Where and and people remember he appeared last home game that was against Miami if I remember right opener you know kind of you know thanks for the memories type of thing infecting muffed a punt which. I'm -- just mortified and I hope Tedy Bruschi has 1 last season and am I hope that's the case. The the amount of time he has he has -- on able to participate. Has got me a little bit worried.

You know again -- ice. Our -- saying along the lines of a Troy Brown. Curtain call farewell. Able to take a bow -- even if it's not playing sixteen games you know certainly we would -- who we -- expect. Limited use again a lot of it is tied into his top. How are they -- lineup defensively what is the personnel accommodation going to be on the field is there a role for him. In whatever combination they have we still know that there are some questions that linebacker I mean -- there's no there's no doubt about that do the patriots -- Bruschi is someone who can contribute something to them. In a role and not be dead weight on a roster we have so you options with so few number of players to be on that roster.

You know I wonder too. I wonder Bruschi once that. I wonder if if Bruschi in his own part of hearts looks at this thing it says. I'm I'm not going to be in major contributing factor on this team he's even talked a little bit here cents since coming back practices about. You know defining his role that was never -- issue before we knew what Tedy Bruschi role as on this team there was no definition needed. And he's talked about you know the passing of the torch to Jerod Mayo. And and obviously that has taken place -- I mean to -- Mayo is. You know one of the best young depends batters and Nash -- what it says that's it that's the simple fact and I just. Maybe I'm maybe I'm being. You know what may be I am being. Worried without reason here. But I I have this little nagging feeling in the back in my mind and I hope on wrong that we might have seen the end of the Tedy Bruschi.

Well you know. Obviously the name that's everywhere right now in the NFL Brett Favre and he's a guy who could not say goodbye no matter how many times he tried in the vikings are. Anointed him their starter even though he's forty years old has a bad shoulder and -- lot of money. But he could not say goodbye. I can't picture any scenario. Which Tedy Bruschi where he beat he he'd talk to Bill Belichick in Belichick would take -- you know what. There's not a role for you on this team I couldn't imagine Bruschi saying you know what I can still play on the release me select a hook on with somebody else and right I mean you don't know. He says he tests at all along and I believe a 100%. This is the only uniform equal or do you sense there's. On a difference of opinion that maybe the patriots I you know you don't have enough ball won't give you a chance to show us something in training camp or Bruschi thinks he has more to offer -- you know. Again. If you look at it and say why would they go through. This whole process of doing training camp and -- and coming back in and and trying to contributed and play for the patriots here. If there wasn't some kind of dignified exit strategy for someone who means so much to the patriots organization through years like Tedy Bruschi you know I don't know they might they somebody's. Somebody must see something that you know what I IC a specific thing Belichick -- Nazis specific thing he can do for this team and he's gonna do it for when he five snaps a game I don't know I mean. I got a fair question I hope -- right now I really would love to seat Bruschi one final in years assuming he wants it. This is entirely up to Ian I I will say this in line and I'm builders breaks coming left and right here so you just pull that -- and pulled off stage here. I will say this if you can't play. -- I'm putting aside. By you respect and admiration for -- like you know what it's over I mean because there there's no question team missed the playoffs last year. Whose calm out here with an intense training camp there haven't to a days and obviously a commitment. Right from the very beginning it's different from past years by all accounts if he can't play he's done. And I don't think Bill Belichick will keep somebody on for all time -- open the question about that.

I thought he did with Troy -- I thought he kept Troy Brown around role times. Troy Brown made very little contribution to the team his last year here he didn't really in play very much. And and by the way I had no wish you could pat. I have I have no we shall Belichick that would Bruschi. If Bruschi was willing and if -- Jack wanted I'm okay with that -- I think there are guys who -- that brown earned it Bruschi has earned it. If that's if that's what they end up -- I'd be happy with part time for Tedy Bruschi as opposed to note that.

It and if there's no better option than Tedy Bruschi at his station his career than he -- he will stick around and they'll find something for hammer away that he can contribute but. He met right now you just look at it -- will maybe it's just having some linebacker depth of insurance weather's been so much Tom Walton turn over at that position over the last couple year.
