How on earth was Malcolm Butler, the hero of the New England Patriots’ Super Bowl victory in 2015 and a man who had started 15 regular season and two playoff games, sitting on the bench with the Patriots and Philadelphia Eagles battling down to the wire? Got to keep playing, man.”Belichick didn’t care to revisit the Super Bowl or to comment on Butler’s struggles. Belichick was asked what he had seen from Butler and Logan Ryan, another former Patriots player, and was no less snarky. “They lead the league in defense, so they’re good,” Belichick said. Right now, they’re playing better defense than anyone else in the league.
