Cody Parkey Jersey , but Patriots linebacker Kyle Van Noy left a thank you note on social media for his coach anyway on Thursday"Happy anniversary to me and my trade day! What a day that turned out to be!" Van Noy wrote on Twitter to commemorate the two-year anniversary of his trade from the Detroit Lions.Among the hashtags at the end of the post were "thanksbill," a digital shout-out to his notoriously social media averse Patriots coach.It's also was a continued celebration of a journey to New England that Van Noy said he considers to be "a blessing."Van Noy was still trying to find his place in the NFL in 2016 when he got the call that he had been dealt to the perennial Super Bowl contender.Two years, two Super Bowl appearances, a Super Bowl ring and contract extension later the linebacker has grown into one of the Patriots' key cogs on defense."It's big time," Van Noy said. "Happy to be a part of this."Despite often being the odd man out with the Lions after they drafted him in the second round in 2014 http://www.thebearslockerroom.com/authentic-khalil-mack-jersey , Van Noy arrived in New England and almost immediately found himself being put to use alongside linebacker Dont'a Hightower.Van Noy played both middle and outside linebacker during his seven regular-season appearances in 2016 and was on the field for all three playoff games, including the comeback Super Bowl win over Atlanta.Those efforts were rewarded last season when the Patriots signed him to a two-year, $11.7 million contract extension."Kyle has a lot of versatility for us. He can do all of the things really that a linebacker needs to do," Belichick said. "Play the run, rush the passer and play in coverage. He does a good job at all of them and his versatility has been valuable for us."Van Noy has validated the faith Belichick showed in him.His 73 combined tackles ranked third on the team in 2017 and his 5陆 sacks were second only to Trey Flowers' 6陆.Van Noy also saw his responsibilities increase Gale Sayers Jersey , including being given the responsibility of wearing the wired helmet to receive the defensive calls from the sideline.The Patriots have struggled to limit teams this season, giving up 400 or more yards in five of their seven games. But Van Noy has remained one of their most consistent players as they've tried to work through their issues.He has started all seven games and is second on the team with 36 total tackles. He also has one of the Patriots' 10 interceptions.In addition, Van Noy has shown value on special teams, scooping up Hightower's blocked punt in the third quarter at Chicago last week and returning it 29 yards for a touchdown in New England' 38-31 win.The Patriots will need a similar output as they prepare for their fourth road game of the season at Buffalo on Monday. New England's win at Chicago is its only win away from Massachusetts this season.Van Noy said sharing the field with Hightower has made him a better player."Playing with someone like him, obviously he's an incredible player Womens Walter Payton Jersey ," Van Noy said. "We know what each other's doing."I've played his position. He's played mine. So it's easy to know what each other has to do. We play off each other. He can count on me and I can count on him. ... We try to have that foundation for the rest of the guys."Notes: Rookie RB Sony Michel (knee), CB Eric Rowe (groin) and OL Brian Schwenke did not participate in practice on Thursday. It is the second straight day that Michel and Rowe were absent from practice this week. Michel was helped off the field in last week's win at Chicago and eventually carted to the locker room after he had his leg pinned underneath him on a tackle by Bears lineman Bilal Nichols. Rowe continues to be dogged by the groin issue that has contributed to him missing three games this season. Kyler Murray came into the NFL as the No. 1 overall pick after winning the Heisman Trophy last year, which means there are high expectations for what the quarterback will do with the Cardinals.It remains to be seen if he meets them on the field this fall, but his spring work was met with a lot of praise from his new teammates. Running back David Johnson said he thinks Murray will be “scary” for opposing defenses and cited the team’s leading pass rusher Chandler Jones as a source for how hard Murray can make life for defenses.Jones said he’s also liked the way that Murray took command of the offense immediately after joining the team.“Kyler’s confident, and he’s not a cocky player http://www.thebearslockerroom.com/authentic-jim-mcmahon-jersey ,” Jones said, via ESPN.com “For him to be the first overall pick, he’s a very confident player. He’s composed. I can see him construct, I see him getting guys together in the huddle, and as a young guy Tarik Cohen Jersey , that’s something that I admire about him. He’s good at grabbing guys’ attention. I’m not sure how tall he is, but I see his little helmet and I see a little helmet in the huddle. He’s grabbing guys. I’m just, it’s impressive. He’s an impressive player.”That fits with wide receiver Larry Fitzgerald saying that Murray knows the offense better than anyone else on the team and the overall impression heading into training camp is that Murray’s done a lot to show his new teammates that he’s the right guy for the job.
