Christopher L. Gasper of the Boston Globe reports while former Patriots linebacker Willie McGinest has made it clear that he would be open to a return to the Patriots and told Albert Breer of Sporting News that he's talked to Tom Brady and Richard Seymour, nothing has changed since April, when McGinest expressed similar sentiments in an NFL.com chat.
A source close to McGinest said today that the veteran linebacker would like to return for a 16th season and maintains a relationship with Patriots coach Bill Belichick, but there have been no formal talks aimed at bringing McGinest back to New England and no offer from the Patriots.
