When reports came out ahead of Monday night's Bills game that Josh Gordon would be benched due to tardiness, it seemed like another mistake in a long line of them for the talented receiver.
But Monday night came and went, Bill Belichick said he didn't know anything about it, and Gordon played the whole game.
When asked about the reports on Friday, Gordon didn't have much to add.
“I do not have any [comment] on that, but I heard about it."
While he's only been here a few weeks, Gordon has already adjusted to the typical Patriots media responses to potential turmoil within the building.
