The Patriots’ highly unusual decision to suspend punter Jake Bailey and cornerback Jack Jones is not sitting well with the players or their agents.
Jones’ agent had previously said his suspension was the result of a “miscommunication,” and now Bailey’s agent has said he’s fighting it on behalf of his client.
Agent Doug Hendrickson said in a statement to PFT that during his time on injured reserve Bailey has been fully engaged in all required rehab and treatments, and that Bailey was ready, willing and able to return to play before the Patriots suspended him.
