The rumors of trouble in New England between Brady and Belichick might be true.  Following his Super Bowl benching, cornerback Malcolm Butler spoke out on social media.

Butler denies violating his curfew in a lengthy post that only makes the odd benching more confusing.

What is revealing from the post is who liked it and commented on it.  None other than Patriots quarterback Tom Brady.

Brady had this to say in response to Butler’s post:

“Love you Malcolm.  You are an incredible player and teammate and friend.  Always!!!!!!”

It looks like Brady doesn’t agree with Butler’s benching.  There is real trouble in paradise.  The off-season in New England is going to be entertaining.
