'I just feel numb': Inside the Patriots' locker room after a crushing Super Bowl defeat
"I just feel numb. I feel like everybody played their hearts out. Everybody did what they could do and try to go as hard as they can, so I really just feel numb. Numb. Numb. Numb."
"I'm sick, man. This is something that you work so hard for. It's something that you know you have in the grasp of your hands, but they got it. They won today. Kudos to them, they made more plays than us, but I feel sick, bro."
"Man, I'm out of here. Ain't nobody ask no questions yet."
The New England Patriots fell 29-13 to the Seattle Seahawks in Super Bowl LX, and the locker-room atmosphere was heavy and stunned. Players showed visible signs of pain and disbelief: Ben Brown removed his name plate, Marcus Jones tugged at eye-black, and Stefon Diggs stared at his phone. Jaylinn Hawkins described feeling numb, while Craig Woodson, who led the team with 10 tackles including three for loss, said he felt sick and credited the opponent for making more plays. Will Campbell allowed a career-high 14 pressures, and Jared Wilson avoided reporters as disappointment settled over the team after an overachieving season.
