Seth Wickersham says process of reporting Patriots story was ‘almost like having an affair’

ESPN writer Seth Wickersham says he thinks his explosive story last month about the increasing tensions between Patriots quarterback Tom Brady, coach Belichick, and owner Robert Kraft will “age well.”

“I don’t know when the definitive book will be written about the Patriots, but I have a feeling that when the chapter is written about this season, it’s going to be a really good one, once people are a little bit more liberated to talk,” he said in an interview Wednesday on the Longform Podcast.

The veteran journalist also opened up about process of getting inside the Patriots organization and his experience of the aftermath of the controversial story.
