VIDEO: Weird Clip Emerges of Bills HC Sean McDermott Kicking Patriots Employees off His Sideline

The New England Patriots' illegal taping of the Cincinnati Bengals becomes even more fascinating with the release of a video from one of the Pats' earlier games this season against the Buffalo Bills. Here, you can see head coach Sean McDermott booting a couple of Patriots employees from the Bills' sideline.

McDermott is physically waving two Pats employees away from his sideline, and one of them is visibly frustrated throughout the encounter.

The Patriots have admitted to taping the Bengals-Browns game and unknowingly breaking NFL rules, but they at least did it from the press box. Having employees on another team's sideline -- regardless of what they are doing -- is very much overstepping boundaries.

Patriots’ advance scout was not filming but being filmed, per a league source. He was being filmed for a feature the team produced called, "Do Your Job." The video crew was credentialed by the Browns to shoot video in the press box and their PR person was aware, per the source

While this incident doesn't indict the Patriots on anything, it's yet again another poor look for the franchise so many accuse of cheating. Any team that can break a rule after already getting caught and punished for doing it previously must really not be doing its best to stay away from such situations.

Nonetheless, this will only make their Dec. 21 matchup that much more entertaining.
