Judon said he and his agents asked for a direct meeting but those requests were not granted before the Patriots traded him for a third-round pick.
The star linebacker told NBC Sports Boston that he and his agents asked for a direct meeting, but those requests were not granted before the Patriots traded him for a 2025 third-round pick.. “I think that’s the biggest point. They kind of didn’t know where I was at. We kind of didn’t know where they was at. It was just always through text messages and phone calls, we just never sat down and actually talked about it. I think that was the biggest kind of disconnect.
While they may not have had a face-to-face conversation to get to the heart of the matter, the sides had conversations about a possible extension or adding incentives to his deal, “But I have to focus on myself. I’m happy for those guys. As much as everybody wants to see me stay around here for a long time, it’s really not up to me. You have to ask those guys who are making those decisions.”in hopes of striking new deals with the 49ers and Cowboys, respectively, Judon only missed two practices before returning to the team.
