Deflategate drama with the Colts appeared to be over once general manager Ryan Grigson had left the franchise, but maybe not.

After Josh McDaniels changed his mind and backed out of being the next coach of the Colts to stay in New England, a league source texted ESPN's Adam Schefter and said, "That's Kraft putting it to the Colts again. He will forever try and (expletive) that place ever since deflate gate."


Kraft reportedly sweetened McDaniels' contract as the team's offensive coordinator and played a large part in him changing his mind to stay with the Patriots.

This puts the Colts in an extremely tough position and likely means the rivalry between the two franchises is back on.

The two teams will play at Gillette Stadium next season.
