The NFL Players Association officially filed its new brief on behalf of New England Patriots quarterback Tom Brady, further arguing against the NFL's decision to suspend Brady for the first four games of the 2015 regular season.
NFL Network's Albert Breer provided the preliminary statement from the NFLPA:

The union uploaded a full copy of its motion online, which Breer helpfully summarized:
NFLPA motion: a) NFL violated law of shop; b) discipline wasn't consistent/fair; c) process was fundamentally unfair; d) Goodell was partial

This comes after NFL commissioner Roger Goodell upheld the four-game suspension issued against Brady.
