Survey: Brady's public perception took hit in Deflategate

The last thing Tom Brady wants right now is another dent in his image.

Unfortunately for the four-time Super Bowl-winning quarterback, 34 percent of the public has an unfavorable opinion of Brady after Deflategate, while only 21 percent has a favorable opinion, a recent poll found. This same poll was conducted in December 2013, and at that time 23 percent of the public had an unfavorable view, opposed to the 39 percent who found him favorable.

The poll was conducted by Public Policy Polling between Aug. 28 and Aug. 30.

Even though the poll was conducted before Judge Richard Berman’s decision vacating Brady’s four-game suspension, Tom Jensen, director of Public Policy Polling, doubts the numbers would have improved.
