NFL Draft prospect Deebo Samuel shared a funny video on Instagram following a meeting with the New England Patriots.
Samuel was among a group of receiving targets to meet with the Patriots during the week. His meeting with Bill Belichick must have gone well, because Samuel felt comfortable enough to post on his Instagram story, “Hey Billy, I’ll see you in a month, my man.”
Interesting approach from South Carolina’s Deebo Samuel. After his visit with Patriots, he posted to Instagram saying, “Hey Billy. I’ll see you in a month, my man.” pic.twitter.com/e7EgDOAkDc

A rookie calling Belichick “Billy” and calling his shot that he’ll be drafted by the team? Wow, that takes some stones.
The list of players who also visited reportedly included Ole Miss prospect AJ Brown and Iowa TE Noah Fant. The Patriots appear to be hungry for some receiving help after missing out in free agency and trades and seeing Rob Gronkowski retire.
For what it’s worth, Samuel isn’t the only player recently to come away eyeing a spot with the Patriots.
