Tom Brady says he is not injured

Quarterback Tom Brady says he is not injured after coach Bill Belichick replaced him with backup quarterback Brian Hoyer with over six minutes remaining in Sunday’s Patriots-Bills game.

Brady told reporters after New England’s 24-12 win that he was not surprised by the decision and insisted he feels 100 percent. Some reporters have been speculating that’s not the case, theorizing that Brady’s knee has been bothering him. NBC Sports Boston’s Phil Perry noted the 41-year-old curtailed his pregame routine Sunday, and NFL Network’s Mike Giardi previously surmised he might be playing through a torn or partially torn MCL.
