You can hear in his voice what made Corey Dillon successful. Corey’s passion for football and positive mindset made him a star. We were lucky enough to have him in New England from 2004-2006. In that time, Corey earned a spot on the Patriots 2000’s All-Decade Team.

Corey speaks with us about his beginnings in the NFL with the Bengals. And discusses how he stayed focused on sub .500 teams. He talks about the day he put the Bengals on his back, running for 278 yards against the Broncos. Hear why this momentous day was bittersweet for him.

What was it like coming to the Pats in 2004? Did he buy into the “Patriots Way”? What did Bill Belichick ask Corey in their first meeting? He remembers his New England teammates, gives his thoughts on a number of them including his feelings on Junior Seau. Also, learn what TB12’s nickname for Corey was and where it came from.

Corey has an impressive resume but has yet to be added to the Bengals Ring of Honor, given a gold jacket, or be immortalized in Foxboro. He gives us his pitch for the Patriots Hall of Fame. Let’s get a groundswell for him to don the red jacket.

As always, there is more in our conversation. Give it a listen. You’ll be glad you did.
