Tom Brady explained what he learned from Deflategate

If he could do everything over again, Patriots quarterback Tom Brady says he would not have handled the aftermath of the Deflategate controversy any differently.

“I think it taught me a lot of things,” Brady told Oprah Winfrey in an interview that aired Sunday. “It taught me about the people I could really count on, the people that really supported me, and it taught me a lot about life.”

“Sometimes you do the best you can do, and it doesn’t work out,” he continued. “There were a lot of frustrations, and I tried to fight as hard as I could for what I believed in.
