It was just a matter of time before former CB Asante Samuel jumped into the Pats controversy. He had some rather scathing comments about Coach Belichick and urged members of the current team to speak up against their coach. This is not the first time that Asante has trashed his former coach.
Samuel was a 4th round pick in the 2003 draft. He left the team as a free agent after the 2007 season. The slapped the franchise tag on him in early 2007. The Pats agreed not to do it for 2008 if they won 12 games or if he played in 60% of the defensive snaps. He met both guidelines after the team's 16-0 record in 2008 and signed with the Philadelphia Eagles.
Samuel is best known for the plays he didn't make in the Super Bowl loss to the Giants. His name will forever be associated with "what if ".
