Patriots defensive tackle Terrance Knighton took on the greatest criticism of his game today when asked about his inflated weight from the 2015 season with the Redskins.
Knighton, whom the Redskins listed at 354 at the end of last season, said he's a "lot" slimmer now, and he has a weight clause in his contract as an incentive to make weight throughout the season. It's possible that's the unspecified $300,000 incentive, and Knighton also has a $100,000 workout bonus to ensure he remains at Gillette Stadium during the nine-week offseason workout program from April through June.
"Last year, I was obviously heavier than I am right now," Knighton said.
