The New England Patriots may be trying to recruit Kendrick Lamar.
After seeing K.Dot don a varsity jacket, bearing the reigning Super Bowl champions throwback logo in the “King Kunta” video, Patriots defensive end Chandler Jones believes the rap star deserves to represent his team officially.
Jones recently told TMZ., that since many of the Pats are fans, Kendrick should serve as an ambassador for the team – similar to Drake’s role with the Toronto Raptors.
“It would be really cool. I’m a huge fan of his and a lot of people on my team are too,” Jones told TMZ. “I’ve seen [Kraft] in a lot of photos with iconic rappers like Rick Ross and artists like Usher. I would say he’s a very hip hop owner … so I‘m just saying he wouldn’t mind some Kendrick.”
Within the “King Kunta” visual, Lamar also wears a royal blue Los Angeles Dodgers hat. The Compton, California native is scheduled to throw out the opening pitch at Dodgers Stadium on April 27.

“I would say he’s a very hip hop owner…” GTFOH. These old white billionaires are the antithesis of hip-hop.
Not a great idea. He’s not a clean cut guy to be a ambassador to the new American Team. If anything i would expect an New Englander to be an ambassador. (Ben Affleck, Chris Evans, Matt Damon and Mark Wahlberg, etc..
I been listening to Kendrick for a few years now and I remember telling people in school that he was gonna be making a big sound in hip hop. I been at all his concerts in mass and I will see every one that he comes for its awesome to see a legend in my own time and being able to say that I saw it be for it happened. im not gonna argue with people with what im about to say but, he is the tupac of our time…. I will be at his concert here http://kendricklamar.haltelavaltrie.com
