Brady In Court Tuesday, Not Likely To Attend Settlement Hearing Wednesday
BOSTON (CBS) -- Tom Brady was not at practice on Tuesday, but it appears reports that he was going to Wednesday's DeflateGate settlement hearing were a bit premature.
Brady was actually in court on Tuesday for settlement talks with the NFL as the two sides tried to reach a settlement on the quarterback's four-game suspension.
But as with every instance when the two sides tried to reach a settlement, talks went nowhere. With that, there is no need for Brady to attend Wednesday's settlement hearing.
Now Brady can head to West Virginia with the rest of the team for joint practices with the New Orleans Saints on Wednesday and Thursday, leading up to New England's preseason game in New Orleans on Saturday night.
Tune in to Patriots-Saints on Saturday night on 98.5 The Sports Hub and WBZ-TV, the flagship stations of the New England Patriots. Pregame coverage on 98.5FM starts at 4:30pm with Patriots Preview, with a special edition of Patriots All Access beginning at 7pm.
