The New England Patriots owner seeks another Super Bowl ring Sunday night in Houston, but Robert Kraft is still hoping Vladimir Putin returns the one the Russian President allegedly stole from him in 2005.
"I do have an emotional attachment to that ring," Kraft told "Fox News Sunday" with Chris Wallace. "Maybe if we win Sunday, I can trade a new one with him."
Kraft, a friend of President Donald Trump, might enlist the president to help retrieve his ring he claimed Putin pocketed, he said. Kraft has already made a replacement ring for the Russian president, but he still wants to the original back.

Putin has denied the theft, saying he never remembered the ring or meeting the Patriots owner.
"I was willing to have one made with his name on it," Kraft told Wallace. "Maybe we will have the new president bring it to him when he connects with him."
Kraft's team has won four Super Bowls and seeks a fifth championship ring Sunday night and his franchise is making an NFL-record ninth Super Bowl appearance.
"I believe in loyalty to friends, and the president has been a great friend of mine for over 20 years," Kraft told Fox News of his longtime friendship with Trump.
