Bill Belichick Sends Former Pats Star Heartfelt Message
Moss i most well known for his time with the Minnesota Vikings. But he was also an integral part of the 2007 Patriots team that nearly had a perfect season. Bill Belichick, who was the head coach of that Patriots squad, sent a heartfelt message to Moss following his announcement.
"He was so unselfish. He did so many things that he never got credit for—never wanted credit for," Belichick said.
"Helping kids, spending money to give kids experiences at his own expense, putting them up at hotels, taking them to games, doing so many charitable things—and he was never about the credit. He just wanted to do it for the sake of doing it because he was such a good person. Randy, our thoughts and prayers are with you."
