Gregory was the player that picked up the infamous butt fumble and scored a touchdown against the Jets. On Thanksgiving Night—November 22, 2012—Gregory had a primary role in the Patriots’ victory over his home-town team, the New York Jets. In the game, Gregory had an interception, 2 recovered fumbles (one leading to a touchdown, during the now infamous Butt-Fumble play), 5 tackles, and 1 pass deflection. At the end of the game, on the national NBC broadcast, Gregory was awarded the traditional Thanksgiving award, along with teammates Tom Brady and Vince Wilfork.
