Brady again limited in practice, says age a factor
FOXBOROUGH, Mass. -- New England Patriots quarterback Tom Brady has been limited in three of the past four practices, and cited his age as part of the reason why.
"Football is a contact sport. I wouldn't say I'm a spring chicken anymore," the 42-year-old Brady said with a smile. "I'm trying to just feel as great as I can and we'll see how it goes tomorrow. But I feel pretty good."
There is little doubt that Brady will play Sunday against the Buffalo Bills in a highly anticipated matchup of 3-0 teams. But his limited practice load seems to be part of the "roster management" head coach Bill Belichick referenced in regards to the team signing free-agent quarterback Cody Kessler on Wednesday.
