Nearly two weeks ago, when Patriots quarterback Tom Brady missed work a day before an August 19 court hearing, Brady was willing (as PFT and others have reported) to accept a one-game suspension for not cooperating with the NFL’s #DeflateGate investigation. After the August 19 hearing, during which Judge Richard M. Berman subjected the league’s lawyers to a variety of tough questions, Brady’s camp seemed to retreat.
As of Monday, Brady was once again ready to consider striking a deal.
Ian Rapoport of NFL Media reports that Brady was open to serving a one-game suspension for failure to cooperate.
