After the Patriots decided not to resign former University of Florida linebacker Brandon Spikes he hit the open market and found a new home with the Patriots division rival. Spikes signed a one year deal for $3.25 million back in March.

Dan Koppen made some interesting comments about his former teammate on Sports Tonight and said:

I think Brandon Spikes is a good football player... I think he's a good run defender. I just don't think he's a good teammate.

When you think of inflammatory comments and Brandon Spikes you usually think of them coming from Spikes. Here are some notable tweets that the former Patriot linebacker has made since leaving New England.











The "4 years a slave" tweet deeply offended some people. Personally, I don't recall slaves being paid millions of dollars.

What do you think of Brandon Spikes? Do you believe the Patriots should have re-signed him? Do you think he will have a good game against the Pats next Sunday? Let us know in the comments section below!
