Brady, Tom (Quarterback / NE)
- Non-Throwing; Probable
Latest News:
02.09.12
Tom Brady aggravated the left (non-throwing) shoulder sprain that he sustained earlier in the season in the third quarter of this past Sunday's Super Bowl, the Boston Herald reports.
Impact:
The report adds that the aggravation didn't lead to a major injury, which infers that the issue will subside with some rest and time off, which the offseason will now provide Brady.
02.06.12
Tom Brady completed 27-of-41 passes for 276 yards with two touchdowns and a pick in Sunday's Super Bowl loss to the Giants.
Impact:
An intentional grounding penalty on Brady early in the game resulted in a safety for the Giants, but to his credit he bounced back and was a break or two away from his fourth Super Bowl ring. Brady finished the regular season with 5,235 passing yards, a figure that ranked second in the league in 2011, as well as all-time. His 39 TD passes (versus 12 picks) were fourth in league, all numbers indicative of his continued status as an elite QB, in both real and fantasy terms.
01.20.12
Tom Brady (left shoulder) was removed from the injury report Friday.
Impact:
Brady will be at full strength against the Ravens on Sunday.
01.19.12
Tom Brady (left shoulder) practiced fully Thursday, ESPN.com reports.
Impact:
Brady's availability for Sunday's game against the Ravens is in no doubt at this point. We'll have to see if the Patriots list him as probable or questionable on Friday, however.
01.19.12
Tom Brady (left shoulder) says that he will return to practice Thursday, ESPN's Mike Reiss reports.
Impact:
We'll have to see how the Patriots list Brady officially, but there is little doubt that he will be out there Sunday against the Ravens in the AFC Championship Game.
01.18.12
Tom Brady's non-participation at practice Wednesday was attributed to his left (non-throwing) shoulder, the Boston Herald reports.
Impact:
We'll have to see how the Patriots officially list Brady for Sunday's AFC Championship, but there is little doubt that he will be behind center for New England, come Sunday.
01.18.12
Tom Brady (unspecified reason) was not present for the media access portion of Wednesday's practice, the Boston Globe reports.
Impact:
Brady did talk with reporters Wednesday morning, so this is likely a scheduled rest day for the quarterback leading into Sunday's AFC Championship Game against the Ravens.
01.15.12
Tom Brady completed 26-of-34 passes for 363 yards with six touchdowns (which equals an NFL postseason record) and an interception in Saturday's 45-10 playoff win over the Broncos.
Impact:
Coming off the Patriots' bye, Brady looked healthy, sharp and focused. The interception aside, he was able to pick apart the Broncos' defense seemingly at will. Next up for New England is the winner of the Ravens-Texans game, featuring a pair of teams that boast a strong pass defense.
01.12.12
Tom Brady (left shoulder) was removed from the injury report Thursday, Ian Rapoport of the Boston Herald reports.
Impact:
It has been obvious all along that Brady's issue wasn't something that could affect his availability for or effectiveness in Saturday's game against Denver, but this makes it official.
01.11.12
Tom Brady (shoulder) was present for practice Tuesday, the Boston Globe reports.
Impact:
Brady missed some time last week with the Patriots on bye, but he'll be fine for Saturday night's game against the Broncos.
01.04.12
Tom Brady (left shoulder) did not practice Wednesday, the Boston Globe reports.
Impact:
The Patriots have a first-round bye, so this isn't really a big concern. In fact, those backing New England in playoff leagues ought to be more worried about the team's shaky defense than Brady's availability for next week's game against an opponent to be determined.
01.02.12
Tom Brady finished the 2011 season with 5,235 passing yards, while completing 401-of-611 passes, to go along with 39 touchdowns and 12 interceptions.
Impact:
Brady's yardage mark was good for second in the league this season -- and all-time for that matter -- behind the Saints' Drew Brees. Obviously, fantasy owners can't complain about what Brady brought to the table in 2011, but for those looking for something to critique, it's the picks. He only threw four in his 2010 MVP campaign. Assuming he stays healthy through the playoffs, Brady will maintain his elite QB status heading into 2012 fantasy drafts.
01.01.12
Tom Brady (left shoulder) completed 23-of-35 passes for 338 yards with three touchdowns and an interception in Sunday's 49-21 win over the Bills.
Impact:
The win secures the No. 1 seed (and home field advantage) in the AFC for the Patriots heading into the playoffs. Brady didn't seem hampered Sunday by the left shoulder issue that cropped up this past week and he now has a round one bye to rest up his aches and pains.
01.01.12
Tom Brady (left shoulder) is active for Sunday's game against the Bills.
Impact:
Brady was mercifully listed as probable by the Patriots, so this comes as no surprise. With the Pats aiming to secure the No. 1 seed in the AFC, Brady appears on track to play as long at that outcome is in any doubt.
12.30.11
Tom Brady (left shoulder) is probable for Sunday's game against the Bills, the Patriots' official site reports.
Impact:
With the No. 1 seed in the AFC at stake, as well as a chance to build on some historic numbers, Brady -- the only New England player listed as probable -- figures to stay in Sunday's game as long as the outcome is in any question.
12.30.11
Tom Brady (left shoulder) was at practice again Friday, the Boston Globe reports.
Impact:
Brady will probably end up listed as questionable officially, but with the No. 1 seed in the AFC at stake, we expect that he'll be out there Sunday playing against the Bills.
12.29.11
Tom Brady was officially listed as limited at Thursday's practice with a left shoulder injury, the Patriots' official site reports.
Impact:
Look for Brady to be lumped in with 15 or so of his teammates in the questionable category,come Friday. While the injury to his non-throwing shoulder is clearly worth noting, the expectation here at Brady will be able to start Sunday's 1:00 ET contest against the Bills.
12.29.11
Updating earlier reports, Tom Brady (left shoulder) was at practice Thursday, Ian R. Rapoport of the Boston Herald reports.
Impact:
We'd guess that the Patriots will list him as limited, but his presence on the field, in any capacity, has to be a relief for Brady owners concerned about earlier reports that he'd miss practice again Thursday.
12.29.11
Tom Brady (left shoulder) will not practice Thursday, ESPN's Adam Schefter reports.
Impact:
The Patriots still believe that Brady will play Sunday against Buffalo, but we'll feel better about that happening if he returns to practice Friday. The Patriots are playing for home field in the playoffs in Week 17, so it can be assumed that Brady will play this weekend if he can.
12.28.11
Tom Brady was listed as missing Wednesday's practice for a non-injury-related reason, the Boston Globe reports.
Impact:
We'll take that with a grain of salt, given that there have been reports that Brady dinged up his left (non-throwing) shoulder in Week 16. Still, the "non-injury" designation is an indicator that Brady's Week 17 status is not in danger.
