Foxborough, Mass. — Give ’em a hand: Tom Brady and the New England Patriots are heading back to the Super Bowl.
The former Michigan quarterback shook off a hand injury and threw a 4-yard touchdown pass to Danny Amendola with 2:48 remaining, rallying the Patriots to a 24-20 comeback victory over the Jacksonville Jaguars in the AFC championship Sunday.
Brady, wearing a black bandage on his right hand after hurting it during practice earlier in the week, showed no signs of being hampered.
And, with the game — and possibly the season — on the line, the Patriots star came up big again.
