Legal expert: NFL's reported offer to Brady 'really ridiculous'

Did the NFL really expect Tom Brady to budge for that?

Gary Myers of the New York Daily News reported Monday after Brady and the NFL failed to reach a settlement that the league never made an official settlement offer to the New England Patriots quarterback. However, according to Myers, the NFL indicated a willingness to cut Brady’s four-game suspension to three games if the QB admitted Deflategate guilt.

Sports Illustrated legal analyst Michael McCann considers that an insane proposal.

“It’s maybe the worst offer I’ve ever heard,” McCann said Tuesday morning on WEEI’s “Dennis and Callahan” radio program.
