February 22, 2010 -- Throughout his storied career, New England Patriots wide receiver Randy Moss may be the only individual with such gaudy statistics, to actually be more consistent with his mouth than his play.
On Saturday, Moss continued the bluntness that has become the epitome of his career with the media. When asked if Moss could see himself as a Patriot past 2010, he responded with sense of reality that is usually echoed by fans or past players, not current ones.
“There is no bad blood. There is no animosity on my side or their side,” Moss said. “You know the Patriots don't really pay, so when I got my second contract from them that was a blessing in disguise. I understand the business. I don't think they're going to re-sign me back,” Moss continued to tell reporters at the former Patriot Heath Evans’ charity softball event. “I'm not mad. I'm not bitter. It's just the way things are in this NFL, so like I said after this year I'll be looking for a new team. I think so.”
Moss is entering the final season of a three-year deal and will make a base salary of $6.4 million. Moss is also now 33-years-old. He has 47 touchdowns in three seasons with the Patriots, including an NFL single-season record of 23 in 2007.
