New England Patriots linebacker Kyle Van Noy has taken a paintball defeat personally. Coach Bill Belichick nailed Van Noy with a headshot during a team bonding experience this summer.
During an appearance on NFL Network on Wednesday, Van Noy leaned into the incident, and joked that he was plotting comeuppance for his coach.
“I’ll get my revenge,” Van Noy said, as transcribed by NFL reporter Dov Kleiman. “It’ll be during fall camp somehow. I’ll have to plan something good. He probably doesn’t even know he shot me. It was good, but I’ll get him back, though. He just doesn’t know when it will come.”
Van Noy had better hope Belichick wasn’t watching NFL Network. Not only did the linebacker ruin the surprise, but he may find himself in the coach’s doghouse.
