CSNNE's Tom Curran says the mood in New England is 'cautiously optimistic' ahead of a Deflategate ruling and that Tom Brady is now a sympathetic figure while Roger Goodell is being eviscerated.
The Pats QB has not spoken much publicly since the release of the Ted Wells report in May, making a paid appearance at Salem State University just after the report was released and otherwise keeping his thoughts to himself.
Brady was back in front of a microphone on Tuesday night when the Patriots gathered for a gala supporting the team’s charitable foundation at Gillette Stadium.
