Let me start by saying: I do not blame either parties here for what turned out to be a very funny mixup during a preseason interview involving New England Patriots running back Rhamondre Stevenson and reporter Steve Burton.
Here’s how it went down: Burton talked about “the guy who just left. How much are they going to miss him, and who’s going to step up in his place?”
Good question! He’s definitely talking about the just-traded Matthew Judon, who is now a member of the Atlanta Falcons.
Except Stevenson thought he was asking about Bill Belichick, who was replaced at head coach by Jerod Mayo much earlier this year. So Stevenson talked about Belichick.
Burton came back and mentioned that he was asking about “your defensive teammate.” Watch:

Too good! And no one is at fault here, like I said.
