Patriots quarterback Tom Brady spoke out Thursday night for the first time following the release of the NFL's report on the Deflategate controversy.
Brady told a supportive audience at Salem State University that he has not fully read the report but made it clear it hasn't dampened his spirits about the Super Bowl win and the achievement of his teammates.
"It's only been 30 hours so I have not had enough time to digest it fully, but when I do I will be sure to let you know how I feel about it."
"We earned and achieved everything we got this year as a team. I am proud of that and our fans should be too."
On Wednesday, the lengthy Wells report concluded that it is likely that "it is more probable than not" that Brady was "at least generally aware" that two Patriots employees "participated in a deliberate effort to release air from Patriots game balls after the balls were examined by the referee."
