Earlier today the Second Circuit dismissed and appeal by Brady and the NFLPA to have a rehearing on his suspension. In early May the same court reinstated Brady’s suspension from 2015. Now, barring a successful appeal to the Supreme Court, Brady will sit out the first four weeks of the NFL season.
With Brady slated to miss four games, Jimmy Garoppolo will be in line to start for the Patriots.
Along with the Dolphins, New England will not have Brady for the Texans, Bills, and Cardinals. The Cardinals are their opening opponent.
