"Wes Welker has his locker next to the scale, and he doesn't understand why players weigh themselves naked. Do the few ounces of the towel really make a difference?

The Patriots receiver is also perfectly fine wearing pajama pants that match his girlfriend Anna's. And he thought Bo Jackson was a much better Tecmo Bowl player than Walter Payton.

This information we learned from Twitter. He tweeted all of it.

Inside the walls of Gillette Stadium, players sound like Patriots, talk about the Patriot Way and do their best to keep any information that may be usable by an opponent to a minimum. Welker, almost always, colors within the lines.

Yet the NFL's leading receiver has found a harmless outlet for allowing the world to see what teammates and close friends have known for years — he's wacky, rarely serious off-the-field, and quick with a joke. Recently, @WesWelker joined Twitter.

"I don't think people really see that side of you a lot of times where you do get to be a goofball," Welker said. "We'll do it in practice and the locker room but nobody really sees it. It is an opportunity to be a clown sometimes and say some funny type of stuff and enjoy it.""
