they are already setting it up with the leaks of no bid sanctions expected.
I see a statement from the NFL going with the same Patriots Mouthpiece Schefter and saying a Mis Communication. Nothing was on the tape for a competitive advantage, tape subsequently destroyed and never released. A Fine and maybe the loss of a mid round pick (of course in a round they already have multiple in).
and some money going to Bengals via Kraft to ensure they never leak the tape either
