Hey all --

It was a fairly quiet locker room today, with Ellis Hobbs, Ty Warren, Heath Evans and Benjamin Watson garnering much of the attention.

Hobbs' record-setting kickoff return was still a hot topic, but the players were also asked about the story, first reported by scout.com and then by espn.com, that the Patriots have been accused of stealing the Jets' signals during Sunday's game.

Hobbs took offense to the notion that his team may have cheated.

"We put too many hours in as individuals, as a team, to go out and cheat. In no facet, shape or form did we cheat," he said.

The espn.com report says that a video camera and tape were confiscated by NFL security on Sunday from a Patriots' employee who was on the New England sideline. The unnamed employee allegedly was pointing his camera at the New York defensive coaches who were sending signals to their players on the field.

This story is developing, and we'll see what happens.
