How close are you with Ryan Mallett? When was the last time you spoke to him? “First of all, we’re pretty close. We went through some battles together as team captains and him being the quarterback of the offense and I’m kind of the quarterback of the defense. He did an awesome job leading us to some great offensive performances. I saw him last week at the Spring Game on Saturday. He was down for that. He’s still the big man on campus down here even though he hasn’t played here in a year. Everyone was so excited to see him. He had nothing but great things to say about New England and the Patriots and I told him, I was like, ‘Man, I would love to join you up there.’”
