Are Patriots Playing Joke on Boston Herald With Tom Brady Injury?
Patriots quarterback Tom Brady has missed most of the preseason with a foot injury, but it’s widely believed to be an injury that is not particularly serious, and that the Patriots have mostly just wanted to rest Brady for the regular season. The Boston Herald, however, reported yesterday that a walking boot was spotted at Brady’s locker, which would seem to suggest that Brady’s foot injury was more serious than previously believed. And today the Herald reported that crutches were leaned against Brady’s locker. Uh oh. So is Brady’s injury serious? I don’t think so. I think someone in the Patriots’ locker room is having fun with the media and enjoying the fact that the Herald is making a big deal out of nothing. (The Herald seems to have caught on with its most recent post that it’s all a joke.) The Herald, of course, also made a big deal out of its report that the Patriots videotaped the Rams’ final walkthrough before the 2002 Super Bowl, a report the paper later retracted. Herald repo
