00:00Okay, McDaniels speaking to the media says Steph Diggs is here.
00:03All right.
00:04Am practicing today.
00:05Hell yeah.
00:05Okay, good.
00:06I feel vindicated for saying he should have been here last week.
00:08Steph Diggs in the house.
00:09Number one, good for him.
00:10Should be there.
00:11I'm happy he's out there.
00:12That is a sign that they're not going to cut him.
00:15They're not going to move on from him.
00:17And I'm happy that he's there.
00:19He should be there.
00:20Good.
00:20Great, great, great news on that front.
00:23Why now?
00:24So great.
00:25Give him credit.
00:26I like that.
00:27Separate thought.
00:27Maybe it wasn't an offset response.
00:30Well, maybe not.
00:31He's wearing a Pats uniform.
00:32Why is he here now when he couldn't be bothered to show up last week?
00:36Did he get busy?
00:36Did he get shamed into it?
00:38I don't know.
00:38Did the Patriots strong arm him into it?
00:40Did the flood of reporting last week?
00:42And it was a lot of reporting about they don't owe him this and they could cut him for that
00:47and blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.
00:48Was that a public pressure campaign to get him to show up?
00:51It's so good.
00:52I mean, it worked if that's the case.
00:54But why is he there now?
00:55Why is he here now when he wasn't here last week?
00:57I'm curious to that answer.
00:58But regardless of what that answer is, I'm happy he's here.
01:01That's good.
01:01Do you think Diggs wasn't here last week because it was Diggs' decision, Vrabel's decision,
01:06already a made decision prior to all the stuff that came out?
01:09He just said, hey, this is one that I'm not going to be here.
01:10Here's what I think, but I don't know.
01:11I think it was Diggs' call.
01:13Chris, this morning, during his lead, said he's heard that Kraft was upset.
01:17Vrabel sounded very upset.
01:20I know Breer at one point said last week maybe Vrabel asked him not to show up.
01:23But that didn't sound like that to me.
01:25That doesn't ring true listening to Vrabel.
01:27My real answer is I don't know.
01:29But my guess is he didn't want to be here.
01:31And now he's here.
01:32If you want to read into quotes, which is what we do.
01:35Yes.
01:36So Phil Perry wrote just simply that Diggs is here, according to Josh McDaniels.
01:40And as Phil writes, Diggs hasn't been here for the entirety of the optional portion of the schedule.
01:44But McDaniels says he's been keeping up on the information he's been given.
01:49Quote, I'm not concerned about Steph in that regard.
01:53But does that mean he's concerned in some regard?
01:57Yes, yes, yes.
01:58In that regard, I'm not concerned.
01:59But in some regard.
02:00But in other regards.
02:02There's lots of other regards that I'm very concerned about.
02:05Okay, I like you reading into that.
02:06I don't know.
02:06That's interesting.
