Brady was hit multiple times in the game against the Miami Dolphins. He was sacked twice and endured at least half a dozen knockdowns, including three on one series. Brady spoke on his condition saying, “I’m doing all right”.
He walked gingerly as he left the postgame interview podium.
Brady’s offensive line failed to give him much time to throw, and he appeared to suffer a minor ankle injury when Miami defensive tackle Ndamukong Suh landed on the back of Brady’s legs. “We’ve got a lot of work to do before our next game so that’s what we’ll do; we’ll get back at it”.

“Nothing over the last six weeks is going to matter”, Brady said.

The Patriots have a first-round bye in the playoffs, leaving Brady two weeks to recover.
Tom Brady reacts during the first half, when he made just five pass attempts. Safeties Devin McCourty (ankle) and Patrick Chung (foot) both started the game despite sitting out last week; McCourty got through the game unscathed, but Chung was briefly knocked out of the game before returning to action.
Brady isn’t the only Patriots player nursing an injury.
