The NFL's investigation of the New England Patriots for "Deflategate" has been the talk of the football world throughout the week, but don't expect many more comments on the matter from those within team circles.

As wide receiver Matthew Slater said Friday, the NFLPA has advised Patriots players not to talk about the investigation.

Though the league was initially expected to conclude the process at some point in the next few days, it's no longer clear whether or not the issue will be settled before next weekend's Super Bowl.

Set to begin their week of preparation, the Patriots are turning their complete attention to the defending champion Seattle Seahawks.
