The Patriots will be without offensive line coach Adrian Klemm for a period of time, according to Bill Belichick.
Asked if Klemm was at work on Wednesday, Belichick confirmed that he was absent.
“He’s going to be out for a little while,” Belichick told reporters during a morning press conference.
Queried for why Klemm is (and will continue to be) out, Belichick joked, “You want to put him on the injury report?”
“You trying to get me to violate HIPAA laws, that kind of thing? I’m not going to comment on somebody’s personal medical status,” the Patriots coach added when asked if it was a health-related matter.
