Brady/Moss altercation days before the trade

AP

Maybe this is why the New England Patriots had to trade Randy Moss to the Minnesota Vikings?  CBS' NFL pregame show reported that Brady and Moss got into a lockerroom altercation just days before Moss was sent packing out of Foxboro. The story was reported by former Washington general manager Charley Casserly, now an in-studio analyst for CBS.

Moss may have already been creating a situation that would force the Patriots to trade him.  Several published reports say Moss rebuffed efforts by the Patriots to begin talks on a new contract, even as Moss complained about not having a new deal and expecting to be traded.

Moss will be back in Foxboro on Halloween when the Patriots host the Minnesota Vikings.
