Patriots president takes a dig at Ryan Grigson
The New England Patriots are always up for taking a dig at the Indianapolis Colts.
On the Patriots pregame show Sunday, team president Jonathan Kraft addressed the Colts' firing of general manager Ryan Grigson.
Grigson made the NFL aware of underinflated footballs during the AFC Championship game following the 2014 season. The Patriots won the game 45-7 but the incident (you know, Deflategate) ultimately resulted in a four-game suspension at the start of this season for New England quarterback Tom Brady.
Kraft initially said reporters should ask Colts owner Jim Irsay about it, but added: "That game might have been Ryan’s pinnacle, I don’t know. Jimmy can talk about what is going on with the Colts. We’re fortunately playing football today."
The Patriots played the Pittsburgh Steelers for the AFC title.
