The New England Patriots are usually pretty careful about giving opponents bulletin board material. However, it seems like Patrick Chung’s remarks during the team’s Super Bowl LIII send-off rally Sunday in Foxborough have been noticed in Los Angeles.
“We gonna go out there and kick their ass, baby,” Chung told tens of thousands of Patriots fans inside Gillette Stadium, leading the crowd in a “Beat L.A.” cheer.
Several hours later, the Los Angeles Rams held their own respective send-off rally Sunday at the site of their future stadium in Inglewood — and wide receiver Brandin Cooks, who the Patriots traded to the Rams last April, delivered a direct response to the Patriots safety.
