Former New England Patriots video assistant Matt Walsh is apparently close to an agreement with the NFL to hand over tapes pertaining to the Spygate scandal.
The NFL said in a statement Sunday night that in the last week, lawyers for Walsh and the league have made “substantial progress toward an agreement that will allow Mr. Walsh to be interviewed.”
Walsh, a golf pro in Hawaii, has been seeking protection from lawsuits and other legal action, whether by the Patriots or other parties. The two sides have been negotiating for almost a month after reports surfaced just before the Super Bowl that Walsh videotaped a walkthrough practice of the St. Louis Rams before the 2002 title game. It was won by the Patriots 20-17 over the Rams, who were favored by more than two touchdowns.
Sh*t, meet fan.
