Tom Brady, der Quarterback der New England Patriots, fand sich am Montag nach seiner 4 Spiele dauernden Sperre wieder im Gilette Stadium ein.
Dabei drückte er seinen Enthusiasmus über seine Rückkehr auf’s Feld aus.
It was great to be back in the building. It was certainly great to be back to work […] It’s been a long four weeks for me, but I’m excited to get started on my preparation for Cleveland. I’m anxious for the week ahead. I want to get back out on the practice field. This is what I love to do, and now I have an opportunity to do it. […] I’m going to take it day to day. I haven’t played in four weeks. My teammates have been working their butts off, and that’s what they expect of me. I’ll take the days as they come. I’ll certainly need the practices to try to get on the (same) page as all the guys who have been practicing the last four weeks. But I’m really looking forward to it.
Die Patriots mussten sich am Sonntag gegen die Buffalo Bills mit 16-0 geschlagen geben. Eine zu Null Niederlage erlitt das Team aus Boston zuletzt 1993. Doch mit den Cleveland Browns wartet in der kommenden Woche ein Gegner, der den Patriots helfen wird sich wieder aufzurichten.
