Matt Light denies ever commenting on Hernandez situation

Former Pats O-lineman Matt Light took to the airwaves on the Toucher & Rich morning program on 98.5 The Sports Hub to discuss all things Patriots. He had many interesting insights about the current squad, but one thing stuck out in particular.


Light claims that he never commented on the Aaron Hernandez situation that unfolded over the summer. Fans will remember reports that Light vocalized his distaste for Hernandez as a person- stating that "he never believed in anything Aaron Hernandez stood for." But, according to Light, those comments were fabricated. Here are Light's exact words from this morning:

I guess I could clarify [it],” Light told Toucher & Rich on Wednesday morning when asked to explain the comments about Hernandez. “I was in the woods for two weeks at the time working with young people through the foundation … but I can honestly tell you that two weeks in the woods, none of that time involved talking to a reporter about that situation that played out earlier this year (Quote from CBSLocal.com) 

You can also listen to the full audio from this morning at the link above.This story is pretty bizarre and it should be interesting to see if we learn anything more about it. But just like the team, I think it is probably time for Patriots fans to put Aaron Hernandez in the rear-view mirror.
