The New England Patriots' changing of the guard apparently has included a few bumps in the road.
Sports Illustrated's Albert Breer reported before Sunday's game against the New York Jets that safety Devin McCourty "set off some alarm bells" in New England recently, and that McCourty's fellow veterans may have been struggling to get through to the team's younger players and newcomers.
Breer joined NBC Sports Boston after the Patriots' 54-13 rout of the Jets on Sunday to provide a little more context on that potential leadership divide.
