Tom Brady is willing to miss at least one regular season game as a result of the Deflategate scandal, but the wording in any potential settlement is of great importance to the New England Patriots quarterback.
ESPN’s Adam Schefter reports that Brady would be open to accepting a suspension only if the punishment is the result of failing to fully cooperate with the investigation. As you know, Brady refused to turn over his personal cell phone during the Ted Wells investigation.
That is apparently not good enough for the NFL.
Brady unexpectedly missed practice on Tuesday to travel to New York for settlement discussions, but the talks went nowhere once again.
