Patriots coach Joe Judge under scrutiny for OTA violation

Joe Judge is under heavy scrutiny after the NFL penalized the New England Patriots for OTA violations.

According to ProFootballTalk, the league punished the Patriots by stripping them of two OTA sessions. The league also fined head coach Bill Belichick $50,000, according to Greg Bedard. But as it turns out, Judge might be at the center of this Patriots controversy.

Bedard wrote in the Boston Sports Journal that Judge was the one who held the meeting that led to the violations. His special teams meeting went for 15 minutes, which ultimately pushed the team over the four-hour threshold.
