Tom Brady’s trainer Alex Guerrero travels on team plane with Patriots

Tom Brady

One of the main reasons for the alleged rift between Tom Brady and Bill Belichick is that Brady’s personal trainer, Alex Guerrero, had his access to the team limited at some point in the past year. Has Belichick decided to lighten up in advance of the 2018 season?

Michael Giardi of NFL Network shared an interesting piece of information on Thursday when he reported that Guerrero was aboard the Patriots’ official plane for the team’s trip to Carolina to face the Panthers.

While that may not sound significant, it represents a change from the arrangement that existed at some point last year. Right around the time ESPN released its bombshell story about the power struggle within the Patriots organization, Bob Hohler of the Boston Globe reported that Guerrero has been “banned from boarding Patriots jets” and had his sideline access revoked. The trainer was also prohibited from working with any member of the team other than Brady at his private suite at Gillette Stadium.

It’s entirely possible that Belichick has lightened up with restricting Guerrero, and there’s also a chance Patriots owner Robert Kraft had a hand in it. Between Guerrero being on the team plane to Carolina and a report we heard about his whereabouts earlier this offseason, it seems like Belichick has tweaked some of the restrictions he had in place.
