There is never a dull day when Matthew Judon is around.
Outsiders have been questioning his contract situation with the New England Patriots for days, and yet, there he was arriving at training camp practice on Tuesday, singing and dancing to Beyoncé’s “Single Ladies” in front of cameras.
The four-time Pro Bowl linebacker sparks the Patriots with his energy on and off the field. When the helmets and pads come on, he morphs into one of the most fearsome pass-rushers in the NFL.
Off the field, however, he’s a genuine soul that has a real knack for making the people around him smile.

There’s real hope that the two sides can agree on a restructured deal and an eventual extension at some point. Judon is a unicorn in playmaking ability, leadership and personality.
That isn’t someone a team should just let walk out the door.
