Bill Belichick reveals what position group gives him most confidence ahead of roster cuts

New England Patriots coach Bill Belichick got a surprise visit from legendary sportscaster Chris Berman at Monday’s press conference. Leave it to Berman to knock it out of the park with a great question ahead of the 53-man roster cut deadline on Tuesday.

Belichick was asked what position he felt the most confident about heading into the final roster cutdown day. The answer seemed simple enough for the longtime defensive guru, when asked if it was the safety position.

“That’s probably No. 1,” said Belichick, via NESN’s Zack Cox.

The Patriots coach then followed up with mentions of Devin McCourty, Kyle Dugger, Adrian Phillips, Jabrill Peppers and Myles Bryant.
