So why did he play a snap then? Odd.

Here's the tweet

A family friend who I trust, is well connected in law enforcement and was in Minny this week with local cops told me Butler missed curfew, got caught with weed when he came back late to hotel, and subsequently had a meltdown on coaches

I know. But I just can't come up with any other reason he had NO defensive snaps. I mean, the Pats had safety's covering slot WR's while one of their top CB's was on the bench healthy enough to start. I just don't get that. Don't get me wrong I was like to see the Pats go down. But I just don't understand why he got 0 defensive snaps.

I just don't believe this. I think this is a planted story. No way a guy who's never done anything just all of a sudden decides to go on a bender during the super bowl.

Seems unlikely.

Maybe he just never got caught before

Apparently he got kicked out of junior college. I wouldn't hold it against him though. Just pointing out there is a bit of a history there.

Did you read the post that was literally only a couple before yours? Not that it has been proven yet other than hearsay, but he said Butler broke curfew and got busted with weed. And old school guy like the hoodie might have an issue with that. If it was not this exact thing, it was something for sure.

My understanding is the benching of #Patriots CB Malcolm Butler happened because of a perfect storm of issues: Sickness, a rough week of practice, and a minor rule violation believed to be related to curfew. A complicated matter.

Eh. No one is perfect man. People grow up and change. I got expelled from high school. I then went on to join the Air Force and become a lawyer. Maybe he got caught smoking weed or something, but i just don't think he went on this crazy bender and raged on coaches as it's being reported.
