Patriots' Tom Brady's 4-game Deflategate suspension reinstated by US Appeals Court

Deflategate is back in the news, and New England Patriots quarterback Tom Brady is back on the hook for a four-game suspension. Word broke on Monday morning that the US Appeals Court had reversed last year's ruling—meaning Brady is back on the hook for the punishment he skirted away from last year.

One year after having the original suspension overturned, the NFL gained its victory over the face of the sport.

A federal appeals court has ruled that New England Patriots Tom Brady must serve a four-game "Deflategate" suspension imposed by the NFL, overturning a lower judge and siding with the league in a battle with the players union.
