There you have it. It's finally mainstream news fodder. Bill had hours long meetings with Brady separate from then with Kraft. Brady wanted another long term contract, Bill did not agree with that. Kraft sided with Brady, and Bill then felt dehumanized and humiliated.
Seeing that Jimmy Garoppalo had to go, Bill made a call to the 49ers head coach Kyle Shanahan who's father Mike had defended Bill during Spygate to offer Jimmy G to his longtime allies for a paltry second round draft pick.
Associates of Bill say he secretly takes pride in seeing Jimmy G go 5 and 0 since being traded to the awful 49ers team.
Robert Kraft has admitted he may have made a mistake not listening to Bill and keeping Jimmy G as the future of the Patriots instead of the 40+ year old Tom Brady who shows signs of decline at this stage in his life.
