Shaq Mason: Patriots ‘glad to have' Josh Gordon

Share

There have been some questions about the impact of Josh Gordon on the Patriots' locker room. But, in true Patriots fashion, every player who is asked is focused on what Gordon can do for the team now, not what he's done in the past. 

Add Shaq Mason to that list. 

"His track record is amazing... He's a great player, we're glad to have him". 

Mason's further comments should help ease the worries of anyone who might think that Gordon will have some trouble catching up after joining the team after Week Two. 

"We're a close-knit locker room, everyone's out to help each other. It just goes into getting him up to speed and helping everybody get on the same page". 

Mason and Chris Hogan are two recent players who have spoken out about helping Gordon out if he needs it. Gordon may have been unreliable in the past, but from the sounds of it, if he wants to work hard, he'll get help on the way. That's always been the mantra in New England, anyway: if you work hard, you'll be rewarded, one way or the other. 

Gordon has all the talent. Now he needs to prove he can use it to help the team, and with the help of players like Mason, it might be sooner rather than later.
